Protein ubiquitination is one of the most important post-translational modifications that plays critical roles in the regulation of a wide range of eukaryotic signaling pathways. Many successful intracellular bacterial pathogens can hijack host ubiquitination machinery through the action of effector proteins that are injected into host cells by secretion systems. Legionella pneumophila is the etiological agent of legionellosis that is able to survive and replicate in various host cells. The defective in organelle trafficking (Dot)/intracellular multiplication (Icm) type IV secretion system of L. pneumophila injects over 330 effectors into infected cells to create an optimal environment permissive for its intracellular proliferation. To date, at least 26 Dot/Icm substrates have been shown to manipulate ubiquitin signaling via diverse mechanisms. Among these, 14 are E3 ligases that either cooperate with host E1 and E2 enzymes or adopt E1/E2-independent catalytic mechanisms. In the present study, we demonstrate that the L. pneumophila effector Legionella ubiquitin ligase gene 15 (Lug15) is a novel ubiquitin E3 ligase. Lug15 is involved in the remodeling of LCV with polyubiquitinated species. Moreover, Lug15 catalyzes the ubiquitination of host SNARE protein Sec22b and mediates its recruitment to the LCV. Ubiquitination of Sec22b by Lug15 promotes its noncanonical pairing with plasma membrane-derived syntaxins (e.g., Stx3). Our study further reveals the complexity of strategies utilized by L. pneumophila to interfere with host functions by hijacking host ubiquitin signaling.
