Abstract ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification involved in various cellular activities. Removal of requires (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases, with macrodomain enzymes being major family this category. The pathogen Legionella pneumophila mediates atypical ubiquitination host targets using the SidE effector process that involves ubiquitin on arginine 42 as an obligatory step. Here, we show MavL regulates pathway by reversing ADP-ribosylation, likely to minimize potential detrimental effects caused modified ubiquitin. We determine crystal structure ADP-ribose-bound MavL, providing structural insights into recognition ADP-ribosyl group and catalytic mechanism its removal. Further analyses reveal DUF4804 class MavL-like whose representative members unique selectivity for mono-ADP-ribosylated residue synthetic substrates. find such are also present eukaryotes, exemplified two previously uncharacterized (ADP-ribosyl)hydrolases Drosophila melanogaster . Crystal structures several proteins provide specificity shared mode ADP-ribose interaction distinct from characterized macrodomains.

Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is the currency of energy in cells; it plays essential roles virtually all cellular processes, ranging from basic metabolism to signaling development and disease. The opportunistic bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila utilizes Dot/Icm type IV secretion system deliver over 300 effectors into host cells, some which utilize ATP perform biochemical reactions catalyzed by their unique enzymatic activities. However, whether L. directly regulates level cells unknown. Here, we discover that substrate Ceg14 (Lpg0437, a.k.a.
