CC -!- FUNCTION: A virulence enhancer that has at least 2 dissociable
CC functions in infection; it impairs translocation of host transcription
CC factor NF-kappa-B to the nucleus and antagonizes the function of the
CC Tuba dynamin-binding protein, promoting bacterial spreading
CC (PubMed:20855622, PubMed:19767742, PubMed:24332715). Perturbs the
CC morphology of host cell junctions by impairing host DNMBP (Tuba) and
CC WASL interaction, altering cortical tension at the cell junctions and
CC allowing bacteria to more efficiently form bacteria-filled cell
CC protrusions which promote bacterial spreading within infected host
CC tissue (PubMed:19767742, PubMed:24332715). Down-regulates the host
CC inflammation response usually induced by Listeria infection. Interacts
CC with host I-kappa-B kinase alpha (IKKA, CHUK), which prevents IKKA from
CC phosphorylating NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha (IKBA, NFKBIA) and thus
CC delays degradation of phospho-IKBA. Translocation of host transcription
CC factor p65 (a subunit of NF-kappa-B, RELA) into the nucleus is
CC impaired, which prevents activation of NF-KB-regulated genes
CC (PubMed:20855622). Recognized by serum from healthy humans exposed to
CC L.monocytogenes as well from patients who have recovered from
CC listeriosis (PubMed:9284184). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19767742,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20855622, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24332715,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:9284184}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts in vitro with human intestinal mucin-2 (MUC2) but
CC not with mucin-1; binding is slightly better at pH 5.5, (the pH of the
CC intestine) than at pH 7.4 (PubMed:18327567). Interacts with the SH3 6
CC domain of human DNMBP (Tuba) (PubMed:19767742, PubMed:24332715).
CC Interacts with I-kappa-B kinase alpha (IKKA, CHUK) (PubMed:20855622).

CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20855622}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Expression induced by PrfA; expressed in bacterial growth
CC medium at very low levels in the absence of extra copies of prfA (at
CC protein level) (PubMed:8878044, PubMed:8641748, PubMed:8975898).
CC Transcription induced upon a shift to growth in minimal medium and also
CC in infected mouse cells; expression is low 1 hour post-infection and
CC reaches its maximum 5 hour post-infection (PubMed:8878044). Detected by
CC 5 hours post infection in human Caco-2 cells (at protein level)
CC (PubMed:19767742). In infected HeLa cells expression increases
CC gradually over time (at protein level) (PubMed:20855622).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19767742, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20855622,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8641748, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8878044,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8975898}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Consists of the cap domain (residues 35-76) and LRR repeat
CC region (77-213) and an Ig-like region (207-297), where the latter 2
CC overlap slightly (PubMed:17057330). The LRR repear region interacts via
CC its concave face with host DNMBP (Tuba) (PubMed:24332715).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17057330, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24332715}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=29.763; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:8641748};
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Significant reduction in virulence when injected
CC intravenously into C57BL/6 mice; no effect on intracellular growth of
CC bacteria in infected cell lines (PubMed:8878044, PubMed:20855622,
CC PubMed:23403554). Slightly reduced virulence when injected
CC intravenously into BALB/c mice; no effect on intracellular growth of
CC bacteria in infected cell lines (PubMed:8975898). Decreased bacterial
CC spreading in polarized epithelial cells (human Caco-2 BBE1 cell line),
CC decreased formation of host cell plasma membrane protusions, host cell
CC junctions are not perturbed by bacteria (PubMed:19767742).
CC Significantly increased production of cytokines, significantly
CC increased recruitment of neutrophils to the peritoneum, after
CC intraperitoneal injection into BALB/c mice (PubMed:20855622).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19767742, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20855622,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:23403554, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8878044,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8975898}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: In infected host cells Listeria surface protein ActA
CC induces formation of F-actin 'comet tails' that propel bacteria. Motile
CC bacteria ultimately encounter the host plasma membrane, deforming it
CC into protrusions. Finally, pathogen-containing protrusions are engulfed
CC by adjacent mammalian cells. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:19767742}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the internalin family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Conflicting results are seen for mutagenesis of Lys-173. It is
CC seen to reduce binding to the SH3 6 domain of human DNMBP (Tuba) by
CC surface plasmon resonance (PubMed:19767742). In the crystal structure
CC with Tuba this reside is seen not to be in the protein-protein
CC interface, and pull-down assays show it interacts normally with Tuba
CC (PubMed:24332715). Two studies show this residue is important for
CC virulence in the mouse model (PubMed:19767742, PubMed:23403554).
