Ubiquitination as an efficient molecula strategy employed in Salmonella infection

The ubiquitin modification has various functions in the host innate immune system in response to the bacterial infection.To counteract the host immunity, Salmonella can specifically target ubiquitin pathways by its effector proteins. In this review, we describe the multiple facets of ubiquitin function during infection with Salmonella entericaTyphimurium and hypothesize how these studies on the host pathogen interactions can help to understand the general function of the ubiquitination pathway in the host cell.
