Evolution of Helicobacter spp: variability of virulence factors and their relationship to pathogenicity [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Background Virulence factors (VF) are bacteria-associated molecules that assist to colonize the host at the cellular level. Bacterial virulence is highly dynamic and specific pathogens have a broad array of VFs.
