Title: Cryo-EM structures of Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin A oligomeric assemblies at near-atomic resolution

Abstract

Helicobacter pylori infects nearly half of the world’s population and is the primary cause of various gastric diseases. It has evolved various virulence factors to aid its host colonization and infection, including the vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) that is responsible for the pathogenesis of H. pylori-related diseases. Here, we resolve multiple structures of the water-soluble VacA oligomeric assemblies using cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) at near-atomic resolution. These studies suggest a model of structural changes of functional VacA hexamer needed for the pore-formation process across the membrane and highlight the capability of cryo-EM to resolve multiple structure snapshots from a single specimen at near-atomic resolution.
