Pan-Genome Analysis of Human Gastric Pathogen H. pylori: Comparative Genomics and Pathogenomics Approaches to Identify Regions Associated with Pathogenicity and Prediction of Potential Core Therapeutic Targets

Figure 6

Pathogenicity islands in H. pylori genomes (Pan-Heatmap). Heatmap analysis demonstrates high degree of variability on most of the PAIs across all genomes. Among the 22 predicted PAIs, only PiHps 2, 4, 14, and 15 are present in at least 50% of the strains.
