Identification of the YfgF MASE1 domain as a modulator of bacterial responses to aspartate [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2013
Complex 3′-5′-cyclic diguanylic acid (c-di-GMP) responsive regulatory networks that are modulated by the action of multiple diguanylate cyclases (DGC; GGDEF domain proteins) and phosphodiesterases (PDE; EAL domain proteins) have evolved in many bacteria.

The Role of Cellulose and O-Antigen Capsule in the Colonization of Plants by Salmonella enterica

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2007
Numerous salmonellosis outbreaks have been associated with vegetables, in particular sprouted seed. Thin aggregative fimbriae (Tafi), a component of the extracellular matrix responsible for multicellular behavior, are important for Salmonella enterica ...

Analysis of cyclic di-GMP signaling components in "caulobacter crescentus" behavior and cell cycle control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cell cycle progression and polar morphogenesis in Caulobacter crescentus are coordinated by the interplay of multiple proteins in time and space. One major regulatory factor is the second messenger cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) therefore especially the ...

Identification of c-di-GMP Signaling Components in Xanthomonas oryzae and Their Orthologs in Xanthomonads Involved in Regulation of Bacterial Virulence Expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) causes bacterial leaf blight of rice, one of the most devastating bacterial diseases of this staple crop worldwide. Xoo produces a range of virulence-related factors to facilitate its pathogenesis in rice, however, the

The HD-GYP Domain, Cyclic Di-GMP Signaling, and Bacterial Virulence to Plants

open access: yesMolecular 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

More than Enzymes That Make or Break Cyclic Di-GMP—Local Signaling in the Interactome of GGDEF/EAL Domain Proteins of Escherichia coli

open access: yesmBio, 2017
The bacterial second messenger bis-(3′-5′)-cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) ubiquitously promotes bacterial biofilm formation. Intracellular pools of c-di-GMP seem to be dynamically negotiated by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs, with GGDEF domains)

Fur Represses Vibrio cholerae Biofilm Formation via Direct Regulation of vieSAB, cdgD, vpsU, and vpsA-K Transcription

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Attached Vibrio cholerae biofilms are essential for environmental persistence and infectivity. The vps loci (vpsU, vpsA-K, and vpsL-Q) are required for mature biofilm formation and are responsible for the synthesis of exopolysaccharide.

Cristal structure of YfiNGGDEF.

open access: yes, 2013
A) Cartoon representation of the YfiNGGDEF structure. The active site and primary inhibitory site (Ip) signature residues (GGDEF and RxxD) are shown in green and magenta respectively.

Archaeal Genes Code for GGDEF Domain Proteins With Diguanylate Cyclase Activity

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
A biofilm‐like mode of growth is hypothesized to be required for the emergence of cellular life. Occurrence of common biofilm gene products in current Bacteria and Archaea is an indication for their previous presence in the last universal common ancestor LUCA and perhaps even in the first universal common ancestor FUCA.

Binding affinity for nucleotides and enzymatic activity of YfiNHAMP-GGDEF and YfiNGGDEF.

open access: yes, 2013
For all ITC experiments upper panels show the Raw ITC data, while lower panels show the integrated peak areas (black square) fitted with the one-binding-site model of ORIGIN provided by MicroCal (continuous lines).
