Funded Activity Summary

Legionella bacteria are the major cause of Legionnaire’s Disease, a common form of acute pneumonia. Here we will study how the bacteria avoid killing in human cells by establishing an intracellular niche that is sequestered from the normal host cell defence pathways. In particular we hope to understand how the bacteria regulate a major protein modification pathway called ubiquitination.
