| UniProt functional annotation for Q5X159 | |||
| UniProt code: Q5X159. |
| Organism: | Legionella pneumophila (strain Paris). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Legionellales; Legionellaceae; Legionella. | |
| 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. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5ZRQ0}. | |
| 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 cell {ECO:0000250}. Note=Secreted via type IV secretion system (T4SS), and delivered into the host cell. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Domain: | U-box 1 is critical to the ubiquitin ligase activity, and U-box 2 mediates interaction with host target. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Domain: | The 25 C-terminal region may carry the signal responsible for translocation into the host cell. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Ptm: | Ubiquitinated in the presence of host E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme, E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and ubiquitin. {ECO:0000250}. | |
