Fig 1. Bacteria manipulate specific poly-ubiquitin signals.
Secreted bacterial effectors are shown positively or negatively regulating specific poly-ubiquitin signal types. Individual poly-ubiquitin chains are represented by their di-ubiquitin crystal structures (PDB codes 2W9N, 2XK5, 2XEW, 6QML, 4S22, 4XYZ, 5GOI, and 2JF5). Current models for the signaling roles of each poly-ubiquitin chain type are shown below. DDR, DNA damage response; UPS, ubiquitin–proteasome system.
