Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular bacterium that secretes over 300 proteins in the hostcell through a specialized type 4 secretion system. One of these secreted L. pneumophila effectors, RomA, was shown to directly modify the host chromatin by methylating lysine 14 of Histone H3 (H3K14), a usually acetylated residue. This led to the question how deacetylation of this mark might happen during infection. An in-depth bioinformatics search led to the identification of a protein predicted to code for a histone deacetylase (HDAC), named LphD. During my PhD, I showed that LphD is secreted into the host cell during infection and specifically targets the host cell nucleus, where it exhibits deacetylase activity with high efficiency for H3K1...
