Infection by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori is a putative cause of various gastric disorders, including gastric adenocarcinoma. Incident rates are associated with variants of the H. pylori virulence factor cytotoxin-associated gene A protein (CagA), encoded by the gene cagA. However, these variants have not been characterized in China, where gastric cancer is common. We investigated the diversity of CagA variants in H. pylori strains isolated from a Chinese population. The 3' variable region of cagA genes from 66 clinical isolates in China were amplified by polymerase chain reaction, sequenced, aligned, and analyzed. All 66 H. pylori strains were CagA-positive, of which 93.9% were East Asian type and the tyrosine phosphorylation motifs (TPMs) were EPIYA-ABD. The remainder was Western type, in which TPMs were EPIYA-ABC. Interestingly, two of sixty-two strains (3.2%) of the East Asian type were mutated into ESIYA-B, whereas all four Western type (100%) strains were mutated into EPIYT-B. Both of the two strains with Western-type CagA obtained from gastric cancer patients contained a distinguished mutation on the first residue following the EPIYA site in the EPIYA-A motif. The predominant CagA type in these H. pylori strains isolated from Chinese patients in China was East Asian, with TPMs EPIYA-ABD, and there existed mutations in both the East Asian and Western type CagA.</span
