LepB_N kinase possesses lipid 4-kinase activity. Legionella pneumophila employs Lepb_N to manipulate host membrane trafficking to facilitate the maturation of the Legionella-containing vacuole (LCV) via specific conversion of PtdIns3Ps (phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate) into PtdIns(3,4)P2s (phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate) (located on LCV) [PMID: 27941800].
