Description
yddV is a Diguanylate Cyclase-Genomic. The product of gene yddV has diguanylate cyclase (DGC) activity. DGC uses 2 GTP to form a Bis-(3???-5???)-cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP). C-di-GMP is a global second messenger in bacteria. Biofilm formation of E.coli is manipulable by varying c-di-GMP concentrations. When the c-di-GMP level stays low, there is little biofilm and the bacteria is dispersive. High concentrations of c-di-GMP promote bacteria to form more cellulose and fimbriae, which enhances the biofilm formation and decrease the motility of bacteria.
