The global regulation of c-di-GMP and cAMP in bacteria. [PDF]
AbstractNucleotide second messengers are highly versatile signaling molecules that regulate a variety of key biological processes in bacteria. The best‐studied examples are cyclic AMP (cAMP) and bis‐(3′–5′)‐cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c‐di‐GMP), which both act as global regulators.

Systematic Identification of Cyclic-di-GMP Binding Proteins in Vibrio cholerae Reveals a Novel Class of Cyclic-di-GMP-Binding ATPases Associated with Type II Secretion Systems. [PDF]
Cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is a ubiquitous bacterial signaling molecule that regulates a variety of complex processes through a diverse set of c-di-GMP receptor proteins.

Dickeya dadantii is a phytopathogenic bacterium that causes diseases on a wide range of host plants. The pathogen secretes pectate lyases (Pel) through the type II secretion system (T2SS) that degrades the cell wall in host plants.

High Levels of Cyclic Diguanylate Interfere with Beneficial Bacterial Colonization
During colonization of the Hawaiian bobtail squid (Euprymna scolopes), Vibrio fischeri bacteria undergo a lifestyle transition from a planktonic motile state in the environment to a biofilm state in host mucus.

Bacterial c-di-GMP Is an Immunostimulatory Molecule [PDF]
Abstract Cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) is a bacterial intracellular signaling molecule. We have shown that treatment with exogenous c-di-GMP inhibits Staphylococcus aureus infection in a mouse model. We now report that c-di-GMP is an immodulator and immunostimulatory molecule.

Modulation of the intracellular cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) pool is central to the formation of structured bacterial communities. Genome annotations predict the presence of dozens of conserved c-di-GMP catalytic enzymes in many bacterial species, but the ...

Protein Deacetylase CobB Interplays with c-di-GMP [PDF]
AbstractAs a ubiquitous bacterial secondary messenger, c-di-GMP plays key regulatory roles in processes such as bacterial motility and transcription regulation. CobB is the Sir2 family protein deacetylase that controls energy metabolism, chemotaxis and DNA supercoiling in many bacteria. Using anE.coliproteome microarray, we found that c-di-GMP strongly

A Filter Binding Assay to Quantify the Association of Cyclic di-GMP to Proteins
Cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger that regulates many processes in bacteria including biofilm formation, motility, and virulence (Hengge, 2009). Analysis of c-di-GMP binding properties of bacterial proteins is an important step to
