NAD(H)-mediated tetramerization controls the activity of <i>Legionella pneumophila</i> phospholipase PlaB
2020-09-01
Abstract excerpt
The virulence factor and phospholipase PlaB promotes lung colonization, tissue destruction, and intracellular replication of Legionella pneumophila , the causative agent of Legionnaires’ disease. It is exposed at the bacterial surface and shows an extraordinary activation mechanism by tetramer deoligomerization. To unravel the molecular basis for enzyme activation and localization, we determined the crystal struc...
