The intracellular bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila provokes strong host responses and has proven to be a valuable model for the discovery of novel immunosurveillance pathways. Our previous work revealed that an environmental isolate of L. pneumophila induces a noncanonical form of cell death, leading to restriction of bacterial replication in primary mouse macrophages. Here we show that such restriction also occurs in infections with wild type clinical isolates. Importantly, we found that a lysine to arginine mutation at residue 88 (K88R) in the ribosome protein RpsL that not only confers bacterial resistance to streptomycin, but more importantly, severely attenuated the induction of host cell death and enabled L. pneumophila to replicate in primary mouse macrophages. Although conferring similar resistance to streptomycin, a K43N mutation in RpsL does not allow productive intracellular bacterial replication. Further analysis indicated that RpsL is capable of effectively inducing macrophage death via a pathway involved in lysosomal membrane permeabilization; the K88R mutant elicits similar responses but is less potent. Moreover, cathepsin B, a lysosomal protease that causes cell death after being released into the cytosol upon the loss of membrane integrity, is required for efficient RpsL-induced macrophage death. Furthermore, despite the critical role of cathepsin B in delaying RpsL-induced cell death, macrophages lacking cathepsin B do not support productive intracellular replication of L. pneumophila harboring wild type RpsL. This suggests the involvement of other yet unidentified components in the restriction of bacterial replication. Our results identified RpsL as a regulator in the interactions between bacteria such as L. pneumophila and primary mouse macrophages by triggering unique cellular pathways that restrict intracellular bacterial replication. The death of the host cell during infection can be triggered by one or more microbial molecules; this “live or die” selection provides effective means for the dissection of immune recognition mechanisms as well as for the identification of the microbial molecules responsible for such responses. We found that infection of primary mouse macrophages by Legionella pneumophila strains harboring wild type RpsL, the S12 component of the bacterial ribosome, causes macrophage death by a mechanism independent of the three inflammatory caspases, caspase 1, 7 and 11. Importantly, although both confer resistance to streptomycin at indistinguishable effectiveness, the K88R, but not the K43N mutation in RpsL enables L. pneumophila to replicate in macrophages. Purified RpsL and RpsLK43N physically delivered into macrophages cause cell death by inducing damage to lysosomal membranes and the release of cathepsins. We also found that the lysosomal protease cathepsin B is required for efficient RpsL-induced cell death but its absence is not sufficient for macrophages to support intracellular bacterial replication. Thus, RpsL functions as an immune induction molecule to trigger one or more signaling cascades that leads to lysosomal cell death as well as the termination of bacterial replication.
