Pathogenecity island (PAI)
A region of a bacterial chromosome that seems to have been acquired via horizontal gene transfer and includes a group of genes encoding virulence factors.
Pathogenicity islands are sections of a bacterial pathogen genome which contain clusters of genes required for virulence. . Sequencing has revealed their presence in a number of pathogens, as well as similarities across species boundaries.

coli Common bacterium that has been studied intensively by geneticists because of its small genome size, normal lack of pathogenicity, and ease of growth in the laboratory.
So you can think of HIV as a blood-borne pathogen or kind of a virus. Now, what happens when the HIV virus gets into the cell: HIV is a retrovirus, so that means that it has an RNA genome that's converted to DNA.
Vaccines are injections given to you to prevent a viral or other pathogen induced illness. The vaccine mimics the pathogen.
During the nineteenth century, the French scientist Louis Pasteur and the German physician Robert Koch demonstrated the role of bacteria as pathogens (causing disease).
Human feces contain pathogens (viruses, bacteria) that cause cholera, typhoid fever, and dysentery. Sewage treatment plants use bacteria to break down organic matter into inorganic nutrients.
vaccine (vaccination) - material used to induce specific protective immunity to a pathogen. Vaccination is an artificial introduction of a killed or attenuated pathogen to promote protective immunity.
