Structural studies of the periplasmic portion of the diguanylate cyclase CdgH from Vibrio cholerae [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Cyclic diguanylate monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a second messenger involved in bacterial signal transduction and produced by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) generally containing highly variable periplasmic signal-recognition domains. CdgH is a DGC enzyme that

Studying GGDEF Domain in the Act: Minimize Conformational Frustration to Prevent Artefacts

open access: yesLife, 2021
GGDEF-containing proteins respond to different environmental cues to finely modulate cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) levels in time and space, making the allosteric control a distinctive trait of the corresponding proteins.

GGDEF domain as spatial on-switch for a phosphodiesterase by interaction with landmark protein HubP

open access: yesnpj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2022
In bacteria, the monopolar localization of enzymes and protein complexes can result in a bimodal distribution of enzyme activity between the dividing cells and heterogeneity of cellular behaviors.

Bacteriophage‐mediated interference of the c‐di‐GMP signalling pathway in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2021
Summary C‐di‐GMP is a key signalling molecule which impacts bacterial motility and biofilm formation and is formed by the condensation of two GTP molecules by a diguanylate cyclase.

π-Helix controls activity of oxygen-sensing diguanylate cyclases [PDF]

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2020
Abstract The ability of organisms to sense and adapt to oxygen levels in their environment leads to changes in cellular phenotypes, including biofilm formation and virulence. Globin coupled sensors (GCSs) are a family of heme proteins that regulate diverse functions in response to O2 levels, including modulating synthesis of cyclic ...

Characterisation of Variants of Cyclic di-GMP Turnover Proteins Associated with Semi-Constitutive rdar Morphotype Expression in Commensal and Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strains

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Expression of rdar (red, dry, and rough) colony morphology-based biofilm formation in Escherichia coli is highly variable. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of semi-constitutive rdar morphotype formation, we compared their cyclic di-GMP turnover ...
