Comparative analysis of prophage-like elements in Helicobacter sp. genomes
Prophages are regarded as one of the factors underlying bacterial virulence, genomic diversification, and fitness, and are ubiquitous in bacterial genomes. Information on Helicobacter sp. prophages remains scarce. In this study, sixteen prophages were identified and analyzed in detail. Eight of them...
