Legionella pneumophila replicates in a Legionella-containing vacuole (LCV). Here the authors present the structure of the Legionella effector RidL N-terminal domain and reveal how RidL contributes to the subversion of retrograde trafficking by binding to the retromer coat complex subunit Vps29, which leads to a displacement of the regulator TBC1D5.
