Function

Diguanylate cyclase (DGC) catalyzes the conversion of GTP to C-di-GMP and diphosphate. [1] For more details see

C-di-GMP signaling.

Relevance

DGC from Borrelia burgdorferi is involved in the transmission of spirochetes from ticks to mammals causing Lyme Disease.

Structural highlights

DGC contains the sequence in its active site. of DGC.[2]
