Protein Family Models

This domain is found linked to a wide range of non-homologous domains in a variety of bacteria. It has been shown to be homologous to the adenylyl cyclase catalytic domain [1] and has diguanylate cyclase activity [4]. This observation correlates with the functional information available on two GGDEF-containing proteins, namely diguanylate cyclase and phosphodiesterase A of Acetobacter xylinum, both of which regulate the turnover of cyclic diguanosine monophosphate. In the WspR protein of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the GGDEF domain acts as a diguanylate cyclase, PDB:3bre, when the whole molecule appears to form a tetramer consisting of two symmetrically-related dimers representing a biological unit. The active site is the GGD/EF motif, buried in the structure, and the cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) bind to the inhibitory-motif RxxD on the surface. The enzyme thus catalyses the cyclisation of two guanosine triphosphate (GTP) molecules to one c-di-GMP molecule [6,7,8]. [1]. 11119645. GGDEF domain is homologous to adenylyl cyclase..

This domain is found in diverse bacterial signaling proteins. It is called EAL after its conserved residues. The EAL domain is a good candidate for a diguanylate phosphodiesterase function [1]. The domain contains many conserved acidic residues that could participate in metal binding and might form the phosphodiesterase active site [1]. [1]. 11557134.

CBS domains are small intracellular modules that pair together to form a stable globular domain [2]. This family represents a single CBS domain. Pairs of these domains have been termed a Bateman domain [6]. CBS domains have been shown to bind ligands with an adenosyl group such as AMP, ATP and S-AdoMet [5]. CBS domains are found attached to a wide range of other protein domains suggesting that CBS domains may play a regulatory role making proteins sensitive to adenosyl carrying ligands. The region containing the CBS domains in Cystathionine-beta synthase is involved in regulation by S-AdoMet [4]. CBS domain pairs from AMPK bind AMP or ATP [5]. The CBS domains from IMPDH and the chloride channel CLC2 bind ATP [5]. Discovery and naming of the CBS domain.. [1]. 9020585.

bifunctional diguanylate cyclase/phosphodiesterase (GGDEF/EAL) catalyzes the synthesis of cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) via the condensation of 2 GTP molecules through its GGDEF domain and linearizes cyclic-di-GMP through its EAL domain; the balance between the two activities determines the cellular level of cyclic di-3',5'-guanylate; contains a a CBS pair domain

The GGDEF domain is named for the motif GG[DE]EF shared by many proteins carrying the domain. There is evidence that the domain has diguanylate cyclase activity [1][3]. Several proteins carrying this domain also carry domains with functions relating to environmental sensing. These include PleD, a response regulator protein involved in the swarmer-to-stalked cell transition in Caulobacter crescentus[2], and FixL, a heme-containing oxygen sensor protein.
