Nucleotides as Bacterial Second Messengers
Molecules, 2023 In addition to comprising monomers of nucleic acids, nucleotides have signaling functions and act as second messengers in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The most common example is cyclic AMP (cAMP).

Detection of Cyclic di-GMP Binding Proteins Utilizing a Biotinylated Cyclic di-GMP Pull-Down Assay [PDF]
, 2017 Cyclic di-GMP is an important regulatory messenger molecule that often directly interacts with proteins to alter function. It is therefore important to find potential c-di-GMP binding proteins and verify a direct interaction between them. Here, we describe a pull-down assay using biotinylated-c-di-GMP to capture a specific protein of interest followed ...

Analysis of cyclic di-GMP signaling components in "caulobacter crescentus" behavior and cell cycle control [PDF]
, 2013 Cell cycle progression and polar morphogenesis in Caulobacter crescentus are coordinated by the interplay of multiple proteins in time and space. One major regulatory factor is the second messenger cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) therefore especially the ...

Cyclic‐di‐GMP regulation of virulence in bacterial pathogens [PDF]
WIREs RNA, 2017 Signaling pathways allow bacteria to adapt to changing environments. For pathogenic bacteria, signaling pathways allow for timely expression of virulence factors and the repression of antivirulence factors within the mammalian host. As the bacteria exit the mammalian host, signaling pathways enable the expression of factors promoting survival in the ...

Cyclic di-GMP mediates a histidine kinase/phosphatase switch by noncovalent domain cross-linking [PDF]
, 2016 Histidine kinases are key components of regulatory networks in bacteria. Although many of these enzymes are bifunctional, mediating both phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of downstream targets, the molecular details of this central regulatory switch ...

Insights into the activation mechanism of PopA, a cyclic di-GMP effector protein involved in cell cycle and development of "Caulobacter Crescentus" [PDF]
, 2012 In Caulobacter crescentus, a complex network integrating cyclic di-GMP and Phosphorylation-dependent signals controls the proteolysis of key regulatory proteins to drive cell cycle and polar morphogenesis.

Bi-modal distribution of the second messenger c-di-GMP controls cell fate and asymmetry during the caulobacter cell cycle [PDF]
, 2013 Many bacteria mediate important life-style decisions by varying levels of the second messenger c-di-GMP. Behavioral transitions result from the coordination of complex cellular processes such as motility, surface adherence or the production of virulence ...

A cyclic‐di‐GMP receptor required for bacterial exopolysaccharide production [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2007 SummaryBis‐(3′,5′)‐cyclic‐dimeric‐guanosine monophosphate (c‐di‐GMP) has been shown to be a global regulatory molecule that modulates the reciprocal responses of bacteria to activate either virulence pathways or biofilm formation. The mechanism of c‐di‐GMP signal transduction, including recognition of c‐di‐GMP and subsequent phenotypic regulation ...
