==Overview==
==Overview==
The L. monocytogenes protein lnlB activates phosphoinositide 3-kinase and, induces phagocytosis in several mammalian cell types. The 1.86 A, resolution X-ray crystal structure of the leucine-rich repeat domain of, lnlB that is both necessary and sufficient to induce phagocytosis is, presented here. The structure supports a crucial role for calcium in host, cell invasion by L. monocytogenes and supplies a rationale for its, function. Calciums are bound to the protein in an unusually exposed manner, that suggests that the metals may act as a bridge between lnlB and, mammalian cell surface receptors. The structure also identifies surfaces, on the curved and elongated molecule that may constitute additional, interaction sites in forming a bacterial-mammalian signaling complex.
