Ectromelia Virus Encodes A Novel Family Of Ankyrin/F-box Proteins That Manipulate The SCF Ubiquitin Ligase And NF-κB Activation
DownloadSpring 2012
Ectromelia virus (ECTV) is the causative agent of lethal mousepox, and is highly related to the human pathogen, variola virus, the causative agent of smallpox. Poxviruses contain large dsDNA genomes that encode numerous open reading frames that manipulate cellular signalling pathways. We used...

Investigating the Functional Consequences of the Interaction Between Engineered Ubiquitin Variants and the Salmonella Novel E3 Ligase SspH1
DownloadFall 2024
During infection some pathogenic gram-negative bacteria, such as Salmonella, manipulate the host ubiquitination system through the delivery of secreted effectors known as novel E3 ubiquitin ligases (NELs). Despite the presence of NELs amongst these well-studied bacterial species, their unique...

Fall 2010
The significance of poxvirus manipulation of the host ubiquitin proteasome system has become increasingly apparent. Ubiquitin is post-translationally added to target proteins by a highly conserved enzymatic cascade, typically resulting in protein degradation via the 26S proteasome. The highly...
