EC 3.1.4.59

Accepted name: cyclic-di-AMP phosphodiesterase

Reaction: cyclic di-3',5'-adenylate + H2O = 5'-O-phosphonoadenylyl-(3'→5')-adenosine

Glossary: cyclic di-3',5'-adenylate = cyclic bis(3'→5')diadenylate
5'-O-phosphonoadenylyl-(3'→5')-adenosine = pApA

Other name(s): gdpP (gene name)

Systematic name: cyclic bis(3'→5')diadenylate 3'-adenylylhydrolase

Comments: The enzyme, described from Gram-positive bacteria, degrades the second messenger cyclic di-3',5'-adenylate. It is a membrane-bound protein that contains a cytoplasmic facing Per-Arnt-Sim (PAS) domain, a modified GGDEF domain, and a DHH/DHHA1 domain, which confers the phosphodiesterase activity. Activity requires Mn2+ and is inhibited by pApA.
