Common Mechanism for Target Specificity of Protein- and DNA-Targeting ADP-Ribosyltransferases
Many bacterial pathogens utilize ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs) as virulence factors. The critical aspect of ARTs is their target specificity. Each individual ART modifies a specific residue of its substrates, which could be proteins, DNA, or antibiotics. However, the mechanism underlying this speci...
