Whole-genome sequences of Helicobacter pylori isolated from patients with high risk of gastric cancer in the Andes of Nariño, Colombia.

Abstract

We sequenced the complete genomes of 16 Helicobacter pylori isolates obtained from patients residing in Nariño, Colombia. These isolates were collected from patients presenting various gastric lesions classified according to the Correa cascade classification. The genomic characterization of these isolates provides valuable insights into the structure, composition, and pathogenicity.
