Abstract
Helicobacter pylori exhibit remarkable survival even in the vulnerable environments such as acidic, peristalsis, phagocytosis and oxidative stress. These stresses on the pathogen in the host induce damage of DNA in the pathogen. H. pylori acquired the ability to survive DNA damage by transformation-mediated recombination DNA repair. This repair mechanism helps the pathogen in successfully infecting the host. While many pathogens are competent...
