Abstract
Bacterial pathogens have evolved with enzyme activities that may hijack intracellular signaling of mammalian cells to establish an infection. Of particular interest is a novel posttranslational modification referred to as adenylylation: An adenosine monophosphate group is covalently transferred to a mammalian target protein. Here, I discuss the consequences of adenylylation and its related modifications by Fic enzymes. Also, I comment on potential applications for protein labeling.
