Abstract
The Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) cytotoxin-associated gene pathogenicity island (cagPAI) encodes 31 genes that assemble the cag type IV secretion system (T4SS) apparatus, which includes structures such as the outer membrane core complex, periplasmic ring, inner membrane complex and bacterial hairs. These proteins interact with each other to inject CagA into the host gastric epithelium. There are also individual unique functions that help H. pylori interfere with host cellular pathways, modulate the immune response and colonize the host for a long time. However, the functions of some of the proteins remain unclear. This review summarizes what is known about the structure and function of these auxiliary components and discusses their role in H. pylori pathogenesis.
