Diguanylate cyclase DgcP is involved in plant and human Pseudomonas spp. infections [PDF]
The second messenger cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) controls the transition between different lifestyles in bacterial pathogens. Here, we report the identification of DgcP (diguanylate cyclase conserved in Pseudomonads), whose activity in the olive tree ...

Regulation of Protein Secretion Systems Mediated by Cyclic Diguanylate in Plant-Interacting Bacteria
The ubiquitous second messenger cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) is involved in the regulation of different processes in bacteria. In phytopathogens, intracellular fluctuations in the concentration of this molecule contribute to the lifestyle switching from

Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms of Bacterial Anti‐Phage Defence Systems
Panoptes as an example for an antiphage system consists of OptS producing a cyclic dinucleotide that prevents activation of OptE, a transmembrane protein. Phage T4 infection introduces the sponge protein Acb2 that adsorbs the cyclic dinucleotide thus activating OptE which disrupts the cell membrane aborting phage infection.

TolC is identified as an essential component of the mixed‐linkage β‐glucan (MLG) biosynthetic machinery in Sinorhizobium meliloti, likely enabling polymer export. Co‐expression of tolC, bgsBA, and pleD* significantly enhances MLG production and enables its synthesis in non‐native bacterial hosts.

Activation of the diguanylate cyclase PleD by phosphorylation-mediated dimerization
Diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) are key enzymes of second messenger signaling in bacteria. Their activity is responsible for the condensation of two GTP molecules into the signaling compound cyclic di-GMP.

ASSESSMENT OF A PREDICTED DIGUANYLATE CYCLASE IN TREPONEMA DENTICOLA [PDF]
Periodontal disease is a progressive inflammatory condition that is characterized by the reabsorption of alveolar bone, the destruction of connective tissue, and edentulism. It is caused by a dysbiosis in the oral microbiome as a result of a shift from a

c-di-GMP-related phenotypes are modulated by the interaction between a diguanylate cyclase and a polar hub protein [PDF]
c-di-GMP is a major player in the switch between bioflm and motile lifestyles. Several bacteria exhibit a large number of c-di-GMP metabolizing proteins, thus a fne-tuning of this nucleotide levels may occur.
