Multiple peptidoglycan modification networks modulate Helicobacter pylori's cell shape, motility, and colonization potential.
Helical cell shape of the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori has been suggested to promote virulence through viscosity-dependent enhancement of swimming velocity. However, H. pylori csd1 mutants, which are curved but lack helical twist, show normal velocity in viscous polymer solutions and the rea...
