Abstract
Bacterial usage of the cyclic dinucleotide c-di-GMP is widespread, governing the transition between motile/sessile and unicellular/ multicellular behaviors. There is limited information on c-di-GMP metabolism, particularly on regulatory mechanisms governing control of EAL c-di-GMP phosphodiesterases. Herein, we provide high-resolution structures for an EAL enzyme Bd1971, from the predatory bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, which is controlled by a second signaling nucleotide, cAMP. The full-length cAMP-bound form reveals the sensory N-terminus to be a domain-swapped variant of the cNMP/CRP family, which in the cAMP-activated state holds the C-terminal EAL enzyme in a phosphodiesterase-active conformation. Using a truncation mutant, we trap both a half-occupied and inactive apo-form of the protein, demonstrating a series of conformational changes that alter juxtaposition of the sensory domains. We show that Bd1971 interacts with several GGDEF proteins (c-di-GMP producers), but mutants of Bd1971 do not share the discrete phenotypes of GGDEF mutants, instead having an elevated level of c di-GMP, suggesting that the role of Bd1971 is to moderate these levels, allowing “action potentials” to be generated by each GGDEF protein to effect their specific functions.
