The structure of an unconventional HD-GYP protein from Bdellovibrio reveals the roles of conserved residues in this class of cyclic-di-GMP phosphodiesterases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cyclic-di-GMP is a near-ubiquitous bacterial second messenger that is important in localized signal transmission during the control of various processes, including virulence and switching between planktonic and biofilm-based lifestyles.

Structural basis of functional diversification of the HD-GYP domain revealed by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA4781 protein, which displays an unselective bimetallic binding site. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The intracellular level of the bacterial secondary messenger cyclic di-3′,5′-GMP (c-di-GMP) is determined by a balance between its biosynthesis and degradation, the latter achieved via dedicated phosphodiesterases (PDEs) bearing a characteristic EAL or HD-GYP domain. We here report the crystal structure of PA4781, one of

Crystal structure of an HD-GYP domain cyclic-di-GMP phosphodiesterase reveals an enzyme with a novel trinuclear catalytic iron centre. [PDF]
SummaryBis‐(3′,5′) cyclic di‐guanylate (c‐di‐GMP) is a key bacterial second messenger that is implicated in the regulation of many crucial processes that include biofilm formation, motility and virulence. Cellular levels of c‐di‐GMP are controlled through synthesis by GGDEF domain diguanylate cyclases and degradation by two classes of phosphodiesterase

Gas-Selective Catalytic Regulation by a Newly Identified Globin-Coupled Sensor Phosphodiesterase Containing an HD-GYP Domain from the Human Pathogen Vibrio fluvialis. [PDF]
Globin-coupled sensors constitute an important family of heme-based gas sensors, an emerging class of heme proteins. In this study, we have identified and characterized a globin-coupled sensor phosphodiesterase containing an HD-GYP domain (GCS-HD-GYP) from the human pathogen Vibrio fluvialis, which is an emerging foodborne pathogen of increasing public

Cell-cell signal-dependent dynamic interactions between HD-GYP and GGDEF domain proteins mediate virulence in Xanthomonas campestris. [PDF]
RpfG is a paradigm for a class of widespread bacterial two-component regulators with a CheY-like receiver domain attached to a histidine-aspartic acid-glycine-tyrosine-proline (HD-GYP) cyclic di-GMP phosphodiesterase domain. In the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv.

C-di-GMP hydrolysis by Pseudomonas aeruginosa HD-GYP phosphodiesterases: analysis of the reaction mechanism and novel roles for pGpG. [PDF]
In biofilms, the bacterial community optimizes the strategies to sense the environment and to communicate from cell to cell. A key player in the development of a bacterial biofilm is the second messenger c-di-GMP, whose intracellular levels are modulated by the opposite activity of diguanylate cyclases and phosphodiesterases.

The HD-GYP Domain, Cyclic Di-GMP Signaling, and Bacterial Virulence to Plants [PDF]
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 domains, GGDEF and EAL, are implicated in the synthesis and degradation, respectively, of cyclic ...

Intermolecular interactions between HD-GYP and GGDEF domain proteins mediate virulence-related signal transduction inXanthomonas campestris [PDF]
In the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) a two component system comprising RpfG and the complex sensor kinase RpfC is implicated in sensing and responding to the cell-cell signaling molecule DSF to positively regulate the synthesis of virulence factors such as extracellular enzymes, biofilm structure and motility. RpfG is a two-

Dynamic complex formation between HD-GYP, GGDEF and PilZ domain proteins regulates motility in Xanthomonas campestris. [PDF]
RpfG is a member of a class of wide spread bacterial two-component regulators with an HD-GYP cyclic di-GMP phosphodiesterase domain. In the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris, RpfG together with the sensor kinase RpfC regulates multiple factors as a response to the cell-to-cell Diffusible Signalling Factor (DSF).
