Type: | Family | Name: | Signal transduction diguanylate cyclase, CHASE2 sensor domain-containing, predicted |
Description: | This entry represents predicted signal transduction diguanylate cyclases (diG cyclase) that have a CHASE2 sensor domain []. DiG cyclase catalyses the synthesis of two molecules of cyclic dinucleotide bis-(3'-5')-cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) from two molecules of GTP. The cyclic nucleotide c-di-GMP acts as an important second messenger to regulate transitions between motile and sessile lifestyles by coordinating the many cellular functions necessary for existence as isolated planktonic cells or within multicellular communities of biofilms []. | Short Name: | Sig_transdc_diG_cyclase_prd |
