Nucleotide second messengers in bacterial decision making [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Since the initial discovery of bacterial nucleotide second messengers (NSMs), we have made huge progress towards understanding these complex signalling networks. Many NSM networks contain dozens of metabolic enzymes and binding targets, whose activity is

The cyclic-di-GMP signaling pathway in the Lyme disease spirochete, [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In nature, the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi cycles between the unrelated environments of the Ixodes tick vector and mammalian host. In order to survive transmission between hosts, B.

c-di-GMP phosphodiesterase ProE interacts with quorum sensing protein PqsE to promote pyocyanin production in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesmSphere
The universal bacterial second messenger bis-(3′-5′)-cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) plays critical roles in regulating a variety of bacterial functions such as biofilm formation and virulence.

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...

Digital image processing of optical density wave propagation in Dictyostelium discoideum and analysis of the effects of caffeine and ammonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Waves of chemotactic movement during the early phase of aggregation in Dictyostelium discoideum were analyzed by digital image processing in a manner that immediately shows the following parameters: wave propagation velocity, period length, wave ...

Periodontitis in patients with severe erectile dysfunction undergoing penile prosthesis implantation: Clinical and immunohistochemical study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The relationship between periodontitis and erectile dysfunction (ED) has been poorly documented in Caucasian populations, particularly severe ED (SED) requiring penile prostheses. This study aimed to evaluate the association between periodontitis and SED in patients undergoing penile prosthesis implantation, and to identify clinical

The characterization of Escherichia coli CpdB as a recombinantpProtein reveals that, besides having the expected 3´-nucleotidase and 2´,3´-cyclic mononucleotide phosphodiesterase activities, it is also active as cyclic dinucleotide phosphodiesterase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Endogenous cyclic diadenylate phosphodiesterase activity was accidentally detected in lysates of Escherichia coli BL21. Since this kind of activity is uncommon in Gram-negative bacteria, its identification was undertaken.
