1. Helicobacter pylori HP1076 is essential for translocation and phosphorylation of CagA.
2. Deletion of HP1076 inhibits transcription of CagD and also affects the assembly of Cag T4SS components CagT and CagM.
3. It is likely that the effects of HP1076 on cag T4SS assembly and activity are mediated by down-regulation of CagD.
