== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DRRA_LEGPN DRRA_LEGPN] Virulence effector that plays a key role in hijacking the host vesicular trafficking by recruiting the small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Rab1 to the cytosolic face of the Legionella-containing vacuole (LCVs). Acts as a GDP-GTP exchange factor (GEF) for the small GTPase Rab1 (RAB1A, RAB1B or RAB1C), thereby converting Rab1 to an active GTP-bound state, leading to the incorporation of Rab1 into LCVs. Also shows RabGDI displacement factor (GDF) activity; however, this probably represents a passive activity following the GEF activity. Also acts as an adenylyltransferase by mediating the addition of adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) to 'Tyr-77' of host RAB1B, thereby rendering RAB1B constitutively active. Also has adenylyltransferase activity towards Rab6 and Rab35. Also displays guanylyltransferase activity by mediating the addition of guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) to host RAB1B in vitro; however such activity remains uncertain in vivo. Specifically binds phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) lipids on the cytosolic surface of the phagosomal membrane shortly after infection.<ref>PMID:16906144</ref> <ref>PMID:17952054</ref> <ref>PMID:20651120</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The characterization of low-affinity protein complexes is challenging due to their dynamic nature. Here we present a method to stabilize transient protein complexes in vivo by generating a covalent and conformationally flexible bridge between the interaction partners. A highly active pyrrolysyl tRNA synthetase mutant directs the incorporation of unnatural amino acids bearing bromoalkyl moieties (BrCnK) into proteins. We demonstrate for the first time that low-affinity protein complexes between BrCnK-containing proteins and their binding partners can be stabilized in vivo in bacterial and mammalian cells. Using this approach we determined the crystal structure of a transient GDP-bound complex between a small G-protein and its nucleotide exchange factor. We envision that this approach will prove valuable as a general tool for validating and characterizing protein-protein interactions in vitro and in vivo.
