Core Tip	Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is present in more than half the world’s population and has been associated with several gastric disorders. The clinical outcome of this infection depends on host and bacterial factors. Studies have established that cagA and vacA H. pylori genes are determining factors in gastric pathogenesis. This review aimed to examine which genes have been suggested as potentially relevant virulence factors for H. pylori, focusing on the cag-pathogenicity island, adherence and motility genes, and iceA based on the relevance shown in several studies.
