In enzymology diguanylate cyclase also known as diguanylate kinase (EC 2.7.7.65) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction:2 Guanosine triphosphate ↔ 2 diphosphate + cyclic di-3’5′-guanylateThe substrates of diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) are two molecules of guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and the products are two molecules of diphosphate and one molecule of cyclic di-3’5’-guanylate (cyclic di-GMP).Degradation of cyclic di-GMP to guanosine monophosphate (GMP) is catalyzed by a phosphodiesterase (PDE).
