Identification of Two Legionella pneumophila Effectors that Manipulate Host Phospholipids Biosynthesis

The intracellular pathogen Legionella pneumophila translocates a large number of effector proteins into host cells via the Icm/Dot type-IVB secretion system. Some of these effectors were shown to cause lethal effect on yeast growth. Here we characterized one such effector (LecE) and identified yeast...
