Extraction and Quantification of Cyclic Di-GMP from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) has emerged as an important intracellular signaling molecule, controlling the transitions between planktonic (free-living) and sessile lifestyles, biofilm formation, and virulence in a wide variety of microorganisms.

Nucleotide binding by the widespread high-affinity cyclic di-GMP receptor MshEN domain
Nature Communications, 2016 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

The HD-GYP Domain, Cyclic Di-GMP Signaling, and Bacterial Virulence to Plants
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006 Cyclic di-GMP is an almost ubiquitous second messenger in bacteria that was first described as an allosteric activator of cellulose synthase but is now known to regulate a range of functions, including virulence in human and animal pathogens. Two protein

Occurrence of Cyclic di-GMP-Modulating Output Domains in Cyanobacteria: an Illuminating Perspective
mBio, 2013 Microorganisms use a variety of metabolites to respond to external stimuli, including second messengers that amplify primary signals and elicit biochemical changes in a cell. Levels of the second messenger cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) are regulated by a

The Regulation of Alginate Biosynthesis via Cyclic di-GMP Signaling
, 2020 Bacterial alginates are anionic exopolysaccharides, which are produced by Pseudomonas and Azotobacter species. Bacterial cells embedded in extracellular polymeric substances such as alginates have a survival advantage as they are protected against ...
