Exploitation of host polyubiquitination machinery through molecular mimicry by eukaryotic-like bacterial F-box effectors
Microbial pathogens have evolved exquisite mechanisms to interfere and intercept host biological processes, often through molecular mimicry of specific host proteins. Ubiquitination is a highly conserved eukaryotic post-translational modification essential in determining protein fate, and is often h...
