Reversible modification of mitochondrial ADP/ATP translocases by paired Legionella effector proteins

Abstract excerpt

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) ribosylation is a reversible posttranslational modification involved in the regulation of numerous cellular processes. Prototype ADP ribosyltransferases (ARTs) from many pathogenic bacteria are known to function as toxins, while other bacterial ARTs have just recently emerged. Recent studies have shown that bacteria also possess enzymes that function as poly-ADP ribose (ADPr)...
