Helicobacter pylori exists in two distinct forms, rod shaped or coccoid, in stomachs of infected patients. Based on in vitro proteome comparisons, there are no detectable coccoid-specific proteins, which argues against the specific adaptation of coccoid Helicobacter to distinct biological functions, such as enhanced persistence or transmission to other hosts.
幽门螺杆菌在受感染患者的胃中以两种不同形态存在,即杆状或球状。基于体外蛋白质组比较,未检测到球状特异性蛋白,这表明球状幽门螺杆菌并无针对不同生物学功能(如增强的持久性或传播至其他宿主)的特异性适应。
