RsmA regulates biofilm formation in Xanthomonas campestris through a regulatory network involving cyclic di-GMP and the Clp transcription factor. [PDF]
Biofilm formation and dispersal in the black rot pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (Xcc) is influenced by a number of factors. The extracellular mannanase ManA has been implicated in biofilm dispersal whereas biofilm formation requires ...

Specificity of the cyclic GMP-bbmding activity and of a cyclic GMP-dependent cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]
The nucleotide specificity of the cyclic GMP-binding activity in a homogenate of Dictyostelium discoideum was determined by competition of cyclic GMP derivatives with [8-3H]-cyclic GMP for the binding sites. The results indicate that cyclic GMP is bound to the binding proteins by hydrogen bonds at N2H2, N1-H and/or C6 = O, N7, 2(1)-OH and 3(1)-O and ...

Novel cyclic di-GMP effectors of the YajQ protein family control bacterial virulence.
Bis-(3',5') cyclic di-guanylate (cyclic di-GMP) is a key bacterial second messenger that is implicated in the regulation of many critical processes that include motility, biofilm formation and virulence. Cyclic di-GMP influences diverse functions through

Activation of Gingival Fibroblasts by Bacterial Cyclic Dinucleotides and Lipopolysaccharide
Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) recognize microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) and respond with inflammatory proteins. Simultaneous impacts of bacterial cyclic di-guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP), cyclic di-adenosine monophosphate (c-di-AMP),

Nucleotides as Bacterial Second Messengers
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).

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 ...
