Popis: Legionella pneumophila (LP) employs the metaeffector SidJ to suppress the toxicity of SdeA and other LP SidE effector family members by catalysing the glutamylation of the catalytic Glu residue. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of SidJ in complex with SdeA in two different states, which together with mutagenesis analysis provide insights into the substrate recognition and the mechanism of protein glutamylation by SidJ.
