“…Similarly, deubiquitinases modulate diverse cellular events, including the cell cycle [ 25 ], apoptosis [ 26 ], receptor signaling [ 16 , 21 ], gene transcription [ 24 ] and DNA repair pathways [ 23 ]. The ubiquitination system is also conserved throughout evolution and modulates a wide range of biological functions in bacteria and viruses, where it is emerging as a major player in the bacterial pathogenic mechanisms of infectious diseases [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ]. Ubiquitination-related enzymes have been found in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis [ 33 ], Salmonella typhimurium [ 34 , 35 ], Escherichia coli [ 36 ], Legionella pneumophila [ 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 ], Streptococcus pyogenes [ 41 ], Shigella flexneri [ 42 ], Chlamydia trachomatis [ 43 ], where they support the host–pathogen molecular interaction.…”
