The ankyrin repeat (ANK) is the most common protein-protein interaction motif in nature and predominantly found in eukaryotic proteins. The genome sequencing of various pathogenic or symbiotic bacteria and eukaryotic viruses identified numerous genes encoding ANK-containing proteins that were proposed to have been acquired from eukaryotes by horizontal gene transfer. However, the recent discovery of additional ANK-containing proteins encoded in the genomes of archaea and free-living bacteria suggests either a more ancient origin of the ANK motif or multiple convergent evolution events. Many bacterial pathogens employ various types of secretion systems to deliver ANK-containing proteins into eukaryotic cells where they mimic or manipulate various host functions. Understanding the molecular and biochemical functions of this family of proteins will enhance our understanding of important host-microbe interactions.
