Summary

Description
English: Bacterial uptake takes place by either coiling (shown) or conventional phagocytosis. Early after entry into the host cell, L. pneumophila loses its flagella and the Legionella containing vacuole (LCV) escapes the endocytic pathway via effector-mediated recruitment of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-derived vesicles and transient association with mitochondria. Subsequently, the LCV becomes studded with ribosomes and effectors and exponential replication occurs (replicative phase; see text). Upon exhaustion of host nutrients, L. pneumophila become flagellated (transmissive phase; see text) and egress the host cell
