Characterization of cyclic di-GMP binding by the sole Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia hermsii PilZ domain-containing proteins
… PlzA altered the structure and charge of the PilZ domain, leading to abolished binding. PlzA and PlzC functionality studies are vital to discover mechanisms of c-di-GMP-mediated regulation of motility and host invasion by the Borrelia.

Cyclic-di-GMP Signaling in the Borrelia Spirochetes
… of c-di-GMP, as it lacks a DNA-binding domain. One known class of c-di-GMP effector/binding proteins are those that harbor a PIlZ domain. The genome of B. burgdorferi strain 5A4 encodes for one chromosomally-carried PilZ domain, which we have designated PlzA. Additionally, certain B. …

Elucidating the roles of the diguanylate cyclases CelR and avmA in attachment and cellulose synthesis with the response regulator divK in Agrobacterium tumefaciens
… subunit, CelA, contains a c-di-GMP-binding PilZ domain, which is necessary for the complex to produce the polymer in response to the signal molecule. Deleting divK, the first gene of a two-gene operon with celR, also reduced cellulose production. This requirement for the response regulator …
