Interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) regulates diverse cellular processes, including antiviral immunity, through its conjugation to target proteins (ISGylation). Increasing evidence suggests that ISGylation can also reshape cellular metabolism; however, how viruses counteract ISGylation-me...
High-affinity iron (Fe) scavenging compounds, or siderophores, are widely employed by soil bacteria to survive scarcity in bioavailable Fe. Siderophore biosynthesis relies on cellular carbon metabolism, despite reported decrease in both carbon uptake and Fe-containing metabolic proteins in Fe-def...
