<p>At the cellular level, bis-(3′-5′)-cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is controlled by diguanylate cyclases that carry GGDEF domains (red) and specific phosphodiesterases that carry EAL or HD-GYP domains (blue). c-di-GMP can reduce motility by downregulating flagellar expression (for example, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa) or assembly (for example, in Caulobacter crescentus) or interfering with flagellar motor function (for example, in Escherichia coli and C. crescentus; for a review).  Low c-di-GMP levels are required for the expression of acute virulence genes (for example, in Vibrio cholerae). In all bacteria tested, high c-di-GMP levels stimulated various biofilm-associated functions, such as the formation of fimbriae and other adhesins and various matrix exopolysaccharides4,6. In C. crescentus, precisely timed and localized action of c-di-GMP is a key step in cell cycle progression13. pGpG, 5’-phosphoguanylyl-(3′-5′)- guanosine.</p>

PleD from Caulobacter crescentus, a response regulator with a diguanylate cyclase (DGC) domain.


Intracellular c-di-GMP (Hengge 2009) concentration has been regulated by two functionally opposing enzymes, the diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) containing a GGDEF domain, and phosphodiesterases (PDEs) containing either an EAL or HD-GYP domain.

PleD (Wassmann, Chan et al. 2007) from Caulobacter crescentus, a response regulator with a diguanylate cyclase (DGC) domain, in its activated form.




Figure 1. Expression of pleD. For demonstrating expression of pleD, we used Congo red staining assay. As previous mentioned, high concentration of c-di-GMP could induce E. coli synthesize exopolysaccharides, and Congo red binding is a complex phenotype that reflects various outer membrane and surface properties including the presence of adhesive structures such as curli fimbria which are involved in biofilm formation. Wild type: DE3 contain pET28b plasmid, colony which was stained red color contain pET-pleD plasmid.
