| UniProt functional annotation for Q83RJ4 | |||
| UniProt code: Q83RJ4. |
| Organism: | Shigella flexneri. | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Shigella. | |
| Function: | Effector proteins function to alter host cell physiology and promote bacterial survival in host tissues. This protein is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that interferes with host's ubiquitination pathway. Synthesizes a 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitin chain, which requires non- covalent binding between ubiquitin and the host ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2D1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18997779}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=S-ubiquitinyl-[E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [acceptor protein]-L-lysine = [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L- cysteine + N(6)-ubiquitinyl-[acceptor protein]-L-lysine.; EC=2.3.2.27; | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted {ECO:0000250}. Host cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=Secreted via Mxi-Spa type III secretion system (TTSS), and delivered into the host cytoplasm. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Domain: | The LRR (leucine-rich repeat) domain forms a slightly curved solenoid and may mediate interaction with target proteins. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18997779}. | |
| Ptm: | Ubiquitinated in the presence of host E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme, E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2D3 and ubiquitin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18997779}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the LRR-containing bacterial E3 ligase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
