Organism Legionella pneumophila subsp. pneumophila str. Philadelphia 1 Cluster 47 genes
Product Type IV secretion system protein VirB8 homolog
1stcategory P-T4SS 2ndcategory VirB8 Family
3rdcategory Conjugation and Effector translocator
Function Component of the type IV secretion system Legionella vir homologues (Lvh) that is partially required for conjugation. Also, the type IV system Lvh can act as an effector translocator preferentially involved in virulence-related phenotype under conditions mimicking the spread of Legionnaires's disease from environmental niches.
