Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-Like Modifications in Organelle Stress Signaling: Ub, Ub, Ub, Ub, Stayin' Alive, Stayin' Alive.

Due to various intracellular and external cues, cellular organelles are frequently stressed in both physiological and pathological conditions. Sensing these stresses initiates various signaling pathways which may lead to adaptation of the stressed cells or trigger its their death. At the unicellular level, this stress signaling involves a crosstalk between different organelles. At the multicellular level, such pathways can contribute to indicate the presence of a stressed cell to its neighboring cells. Here, we highlight the crucial and diverse roles played by Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-like modification in organelle stress signaling.
