Abstract

Introduction: Helicobacter pylori has a genome of approximately 1600 genes, the glmM gene is highly  conserved and has been identified to identify H. pylori due to its sensitivity and specificity in gastric biopsies.  The genetic diversity of H. pylori is high among strains of the same geographical origin and is even more of a  global scale. In Mexico, studies that study the importance of the genetic variability of this bacterium, which is  studied by molecular techniques.

Aim. To analyze the genetic variability of the glmM genus in H pylori strains of patients with gastric  pathologies.

Methodology. Only 90 sequences of the glmM genus were analyzed (10 of study group and 80 deposit in  GenBank), to carry out haplotype networks, where the differences in the steps of the relationships at the  state level and with other geographical groups can be observed in order to do a reconstruction of phylogeny  based on ancestor-descendant relationships.

Results. The strains analyzed showed 30% of men and 70% of women, with an average age of 42 years,  diagnosed with gastritis, the glmM sequences. From the sequences analyzed, it is proposed to confirm the  presence of eight haplotypes that are grouped separately.

Conclusions. We suggest university studies at the molecular level of the glmM haplotypes in strains of H.  pylori to know their geographical distribution in order to know the circulating strains worldwide and with this avoid negative results.
