How microbes utilize host ubiquitination

Abstract excerpt

Activity, abundance and localization of eukaryotic proteins can be regulated through covalent attachment of ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like moieties. Ubiquitination is important in various aspects of immunity. Pathogens utilize host ubiquitination for the suppression of immune signalling and reprogramming host processes to promote microbial life. They deliver so-called effector molecules into host cells, which...
