The helicase DDX41 recognizes the bacterial secondary messengers cyclic di-GMP and cyclic di-AMP to activate a type I interferon immune response. [PDF]
The induction of type I interferons by the bacterial secondary messengers cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) or cyclic di-AMP (c-di-AMP) is dependent on a signaling axis that involves the adaptor STING, the kinase TBK1 and the transcription factor IRF3.

Cellular levels and binding of c-di-GMP control subcellular localization and activity of the Vibrio cholerae transcriptional regulator VpsT. [PDF]
The second messenger, cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP), regulates diverse cellular processes in bacteria. C-di-GMP is produced by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs), degraded by phosphodiesterases (PDEs), and receptors couple c-di-GMP production to cellular ...

Diguanylate cyclases (DGC) and phosphodiesterases (PDE) respectively synthesise and hydrolyse the secondary messenger cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP), and both activities are often found in a single protein.

Cyclic-di-GMP Regulates Salmonella Typhimurium Infection of Epithelial Cells and Macrophages [PDF]
Regulation of the bacterial second messenger cyclic-di-GMP in Salmonella Typhimurium allows it to delicately alter phenotypes to optimize invasion and survive intracellularly in epithelial cells and macrophages to become virulent and cause infection ...

Nucleotide binding by the widespread high-affinity cyclic di-GMP receptor MshEN domain
Cyclic-di-GMP is a bacterial second messenger that binds to the regulatory domain of ATPases of some bacteria. Here, the authors report the crystal structure of this interaction, identify a cyclic-di-GMP binding mode, and show that this interaction might

Bacterial cyclic diguanylate signaling networks sense temperature
Many bacteria use the second messenger cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) to control motility, biofilm production and virulence. Here, the authors identify a thermosensitive enzyme that synthesizes c-di-GMP and modulates temperature-dependent motility ...

Principles of c-di-GMP signaling : characterization of a second messenger system orchestrating bacterial life style [PDF]
Bacteria are able to switch between two mutually exclusive lifestyles, motile single cells and sedentary multicellular communities, known as biofilms, that colonize surfaces.

Structural biology of bacterial response regulator proteins and their complexes with cognate ligands [PDF]
Two bacterial response regulator systems were studied in this thesis. NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography were used to determine the structures of both domains of the antibiotic sensor TipAL, as well as of the c-di-GMP receptor PA4608, in ...

Endo-S-c-di-GMP Analogues-Polymorphism and Binding Studies with Class I Riboswitch
C-di-GMP, a cyclic guanine dinucleotide, has been shown to regulate biofilm formation as well as virulence gene expression in a variety of bacteria. Analogues of c-di-GMP have the potential to be used as chemical probes to study c-di-GMP signaling and ...
