Xenophagy is an evolutionarily conserved host defensive mechanism to eliminate invading microorganisms through autophagic machinery. The intracellular bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila can avoid clearance by the xenophagy pathway via actions of multiple Dot/Icm effector proteins. Previous studies have shown that p62, adaptor protein involved in signaling, excluded from Legionella-containing vacuoles (LCVs). Such defects are attributed multifunctional SidE family effectors (SidEs) exhibit classic deubiquitinase (DUB) and phosphoribosyl ubiquitination (PR-ubiquitination) activities, yet remains elusive. In present study, we demonstrate DUB USP14 PR-ubiquitinated SidEs at serine residues, which impairs its activity interactions with p62. exclusion p62 phagosome requires ubiquitin ligase but not SidEs. These results reveal PR-ubiquitination contributes evasion xenophagic L. pneumophila.

ABSTRACT Wolbachia pipientis is a ubiquitous intracellular bacterium that known for its manipulation of reproduction in arthropod hosts. has also been shown to colonize virtually all somatic tissues, including the brain, but little about interaction between host and these locations. To this end, we studied effects infection on brain Drosophila melanogaster . Using comparative proteomics, uncovered post-translational modification many proteins within head body upon infection, with glutamic acid decarboxylase being modified only. Given enzyme’s role neurotransmitter synthesis, next tested how impacts behaviors gamma aminobutyric (GABA) production We discovered an improved response yeast odors -infected, mated females compared their uninfected counterparts.

ABSTRACT The endolysosomal system comprises a dynamic constellation of vesicles working together to sense and interpret environmental cues facilitate homeostasis. Integrating extracellular information with the internal affairs cell requires endosomes lysosomes be proficient in decision-making: fusion or fission; recycling degradation; fast transport contacts other organelles. To effectively discriminate between these options, employs complex regulatory strategies that crucially rely on reversible post-translational modifications (PTMs) ubiquitin (Ub) ubiquitin-like (Ubl) proteins. cycle conjugation, recognition removal different Ub- Ubl-modified states informs cellular protein stability behavior at spatial temporal resolution is thus well suited finetune macromolecular assembly function membranes. Here, we discuss how ubiquitylation (also known as ubiquitination) its biochemical relatives orchestrate endocytic traffic designate cargo fate, influence membrane identity transitions support formation contact sites (MCSs). Finally, explore opportunistic hijacking Ub Ubl modification cascades by intracellular bacteria remodel host trafficking pathways invade prosper inside cells.

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are increasingly recognized as important strategies used by bacterial pathogens to modulate host cellular functions. Protein ADP-riboxanation, a derivative of ADP-ribosylation, has recently emerged new biochemical way which interact with cells. Recent studies have revealed that this modification broad regulatory roles in processes including cell death, protein translation, and stress granule formation. Given the vast majority ADP-riboxanases still uncharacterized, review we also highlight utility advanced proteomic tools functional dissection ADP-riboxanation events during infections.

Small GTPases orchestrate numerous cellular pathways, acting as molecular switches and regulatory hubs to transmit signals because of this, they are often the target pathogens. During infection, pathogens manipulate host networks using post-translational modifications (PTMs). AMPylation, modification proteins with AMP, has been identified a common PTM utilized by hijack GTPase signalling during infection. AMPylation is primarily carried out enzymes filamentation induced cyclic-AMP (Fic) domain. Modification small AMP renders impervious upstream inputs, resulting in unregulated downstream effector outputs for processes. Here, we overview Fic-mediated other related PTMs catalysed Fic on GTPases.
