     For instance, PTMs such as lipoylation, glycosylation, phosphorylation and SUMOylation can have a high impact on host immune modulation during Ehrlichia muris [57 ], Ehrlichia chaffeensis [58 ] and Anaplasma phagocytophilum [59 ] infections and, multimethylation can lead to different levels of virulence in R.
