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

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 ...

A Minimal Threshold of c-di-GMP Is Essential for Fruiting Body Formation and Sporulation in Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]
Generally, the second messenger bis-(3’-5’)-cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) regulates the switch between motile and sessile lifestyles in bacteria. Here, we show that c-di-GMP is an essential regulator of multicellular development in the social bacterium ...

Polarity of c-di-GMP synthesis and degradation
AbstractThe bacterial cell pole has long been recognized as a defined compartment for enzymatic activities that are important or even vital for the cell. Polarity of diguanylate cyclases and phosphodiesterases, enzymes that synthesize and degrade the second messenger c-di-GMP, has now been demonstrated for several bacterial systems.

High levels of cyclic di-GMP in Klebsiella pneumoniae attenuate virulence in the lung [PDF]
The bacterial second messenger bis-(3′-5′)-cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) has been shown to influence the expression of virulence factors in certain pathogenic bacteria, but little is known about its activity in the increasingly antibiotic-resistant ...

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

BolA Is Required for the Accurate Regulation of c-di-GMP, a Central Player in Biofilm Formation [PDF]
The bacterial second messenger cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) is a nearly ubiquitous intracellular signaling molecule involved in the transition from the motile to the sessile/biofilm state in bacteria.
