AnkB F-Box is a protein excreted by Legionella pneumophila which contains a domain F-box.[1][2][3]

F-box proteins are involved in the ubiquitination of proteins targeted for degradation by the proteasome. AnkB F-box is a protein that assembles host cell polyubiquitinated proteins on the cytoplasmatic side of Legionella containing vacuole (LCV).[4]

This effector is required for intracellular proliferation within human and amoeba cells and for intrapulmonary Legionella proliferation in mice. The presence of the F-box domain is an example of molecular mimicry of eukaryotic F-box by which Legionella exploits the proteasomal degradation capacity of the host cell for its own sake.[5]
