A cyclic GMP-dependent signalling pathway regulates bacterial phytopathogenesis
Cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP) is a second messenger whose role in bacterial signalling is poorly understood. A genetic screen in the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris (Xcc) identified that XC_0250, which encodes a protein with a class III nucleotidyl cyclase domain, is required for cyclic GMP synthesis. Purified XC_0250 was active in cyclic GMP synthesis in vitro. The li...
متن کاملRsmA Regulates Biofilm Formation in Xanthomonas campestris through a Regulatory Network Involving Cyclic di-GMP and the Clp Transcription Factor
Biofilm formation and dispersal in the black rot pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (Xcc) is influenced by a number of factors. The extracellular mannanase ManA has been implicated in biofilm dispersal whereas biofilm formation requires a putative glycosyl transferase encoded by the xag gene cluster. Previously we demonstrated that the post-transcriptional regulator RsmA exerts...
متن کاملNovel Cyclic di-GMP Effectors of the YajQ Protein Family Control Bacterial Virulence
Bis-(3',5') cyclic di-guanylate (cyclic di-GMP) is a key bacterial second messenger that is implicated in the regulation of many critical processes that include motility, biofilm formation and virulence. Cyclic di-GMP influences diverse functions through interaction with a range of effectors. Our knowledge of these effectors and their different regulatory actions is far from complete, however. ...
متن کاملA Novel Tetrameric PilZ Domain Structure from Xanthomonads
PilZ domain is one of the key receptors for the newly discovered secondary messenger molecule cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP). To date, several monomeric PilZ domain proteins have been identified. Some exhibit strong c-di-GMP binding activity, while others have barely detectable c-di-GMP binding activity and require an accessory protein such as FimX to indirectly respond to the c-di-GMP signal. We now...
متن کاملCyclic-di-GMP-binding CRP-like protein: a spectacular new role for a veteran signal transduction actor.
The note by Leduc and Roberts (14) in this issue of the Journal of Bacteriology sheds new light (i) on the mechanisms of action of the bacterial second messenger, cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP), and (ii) on the functions of the well-known family of transcription factors. The authors describe Clp from the plant pathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri as a new c-di-GMP-binding protein. Surprisin...
