Legionella pneumophila has significantly contributed to multiple cases of pneumonia with a high rate of mortality globally. Its ability to exploit host mechanisms through several expressed virulence factors poses challenges for diagnosis, treatment, and outbreak control. To address this, we developed LegionProfiler, a computational tool that swiftly identifies virulence factor protein domains within genome assemblies of Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 isolates and classifies them into high- or low-virulence groups. LegionProfiler automates the probing of genome assemblies for virulence-associated protein domains and determines the isolate's potential to cause severe pneumonia infection. The LegionProfiler workflow is made available through a user-friendly interface to enhance technical control of infectious sources and adds important insights to the general epidemiology of clinical isolates. It could also support the development of targeted therapeutic strategies that will improve patient treatment.
