Cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is an intracellular secondary messenger which controls the biofilm life cycle in many bacterial species. High intracellular c-di-GMP content enhances biofilm formation via the reduction of motility and production of biofilm ...

Adenylate cyclase A acting on PKA mediates induction of stalk formation by cyclic diguanylate at the Dictyostelium organizer [PDF]
Coordination of cell movement with cell differentiation is a major feat of embryonic development. The Dictyostelium stalk always forms at the organizing tip, by a mechanism that is not understood. We previously reported that cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP),

Detection of c-di-GMP-Responsive DNA Binding [PDF]
Modulation of signal transduction via binding of the secondary messenger molecule cyclic di-GMP to effector proteins is a near universal regulatory schema in bacteria. In particular, direct binding of c-di-GMP to transcriptional regulators has been shown to alter gene expression of a variety of processes.

You’ve come a long way: c-di-GMP signaling [PDF]
Cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a common, bacterial second messenger that regulates diverse cellular processes in bacteria. Opposing activities of diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) and phosphodiesterases (PDEs) control c-di-GMP homeostasis in the cell.

New insights into Legionella pneumophila biofilm regulation by c-di-GMP signaling [PDF]
The waterborne pathogen Legionella pneumophila grows as a biofilm, freely or inside amoebae. Cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP), a bacterial second messenger frequently implicated in biofilm formation, is synthesized and degraded by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) and

3′,5′ Cyclic diguanylic acid (c-di-GMP) has been shown to play a central role in the regulation of bacterial physiological processes such as biofilm formation and virulence production, and is regarded as a potential target for the development of anti ...

Identification of the YfgF MASE1 domain as a modulator of bacterial responses to aspartate [PDF]
Complex 3'-5'-cyclic diguanylic acid (c-di-GMP) responsive regulatory networks that are modulated by the action of multiple diguanylate cyclases (DGC; GGDEF domain proteins) and phosphodiesterases (PDE; EAL domain proteins) have evolved in many bacteria.

Evolution of a σ–(c-di-GMP)–anti-σ switch [PDF]
SignificanceDiverse bacterial lifestyle transitions are controlled by the nucleotide second messenger c-di-GMP, including virulence, motility, and biofilm formation. To control such fundamentally distinct processes, the set of genes under c-di-GMP control must have gone through several shifts during bacterial evolution.

One‐Flask Synthesis of Cyclic Diguanosine Monophosphate (c‐di‐GMP) [PDF]
AbstractThe bacterial signaling molecule, cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c‐di‐GMP), plays a key role in controlling biofilm formation and pathogenic virulence, among many other functions. It has widespread consequences for human health, and current research is actively exploring its molecular mechanisms.
