Cytotoxicity-associated immunodominant antigen (CagA), also CAG pathogenicity island protein 26, and cytotoxin-associated antigen A is a 120–145kDa protein encoded on the 40kb CAG pathogenicity island of Helicobacter pylori by the cagA gene.[1][2] CagA is a major virulence factor of H. pylori.

H. pylori strains can be divided into CagA positive or CagA negative. Approximately 30 – 40% of H. pylori strains isolated in Western countries are cag PAI positive, whereas most of the East Asian isolates are cag PAI positive. This difference is attributed to differences in amino acids present.[3]

The cag PAI also encodes for a type IV secretion system which is used to "inject" CagA into a target cell upon H. pylori attachment. After translocation, CagA localises to the inner surface of the cell membrane and undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation by Src family kinases (e.g. Fyn and Lyn).[1]

Transcription

Role in cancer

H. pylori infection is associated with MALT lymphoma and gastric adenocarcinoma; CagA is an oncoprotein involved in the development of cancer.[4] Phosphorylated CagA is able to interact with the SHP-2 tyrosine phosphatase, rendering it functionally active, triggering a host cell morphological change to a more motile phenotype known as the "hummingbird phenotype".[1] This phenotype mimics an effect produced by hepatocyte growth factor which may participate in various aspects of cancer, including metastasis. [5] CagA is also a highly antigenic protein that is associated with a prominent inflammatory response by eliciting interleukin-8 production.[4]
