| - | ''Helicobacter pylori'' (''Hp'') is a class I human pathogen that is involved in causing gastric ulcers and stomach cancers. Its two nickel dependent enzymes - Urease and NiFe-H2ase, provides it a unique ability to survive and colonize in acidic human stomach. Several accessory proteins play a crucial role in the maturation of these enzymes. UreE is specifically involved in the maturation of Urease, which catalyzes the conversion of urea to ammonia and carbamate | + | ''Helicobacter pylori'' (''Hp'') is a class I human pathogen that is involved in causing gastric ulcers and stomach cancers.
