Cyclic di-GMP: second messenger extraordinaire

Nature Reviews Microbiology 15, 271 (2017). doi:10.1038/nrmicro.2016.190 Authors: Urs Jenal, Alberto Reinders & Christian Lori Cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) are highly versatile signalling molecules that control various important biological processes in bacteria. The best-studied example is cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP). Known since the late 1980s, it is now recognized as a near-ubiquitous second messenger that coordinates diverse aspects of bacterial growth and
