Function
MAVE_LEGPH Virulence effector that is indispensable for endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mediated remodeling of the Legionella pneumophila-containing vacuole (LCV) and lysosomal evasion (PubMed:33563829). Essential for intracellular replication in human monocyte-derived macrophages (hMDMs) and amoebae, as well as for intrapulmonary proliferation in mice (PubMed:33563829).[1]
