Abstract

A process is disclosed for the production of cyclic di-guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) without the use of protecting groups by means of an enzymatic synthesis. The process comprises the coupling of two guanosine triphosphate (GTP) molecules so as to form a c-di-GMP molecule. This is done under the influence of a mutant diguanylate cyclase (DGC) comprising the amino acid sequence V153M154G155G156. It has been found that the DGC is obtainable from inclusion bodies, and therewith can be made available in amounts sufficient to improve the c-di-GMP synthesis. Particularly, the latter synthesis can be conducted in a one-pot method starting from commercially available bulk chemicals and allows upscaling to a commercial production scale.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to the enzymatic synthesis of cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) through the coupling of two guanosine triphosphate (GTP) molecules under the influence of diguanylate cyclase (DGC) field. In particular, the present invention relates to providing large-scale sources of DGC. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the production of c-di-GMP on an industrial scale. Background of the invention [0002] Cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a bacterial second messenger involved in biofilm formation, antibiotic resistance and the persistence of pathogenic bacteria in their animal hosts. [0003] Thus, WO2005 / 030186 relates to the use of c-di-GMP in a method for attenuating the virulence of microbial pathogens or for inhibiting or reducing colonization by microbial pathogens. US2005 / 0203051 relates to the use of c-di-GMP for inhibiting cancer cell proliferation or increasing cancer cell apoptosis. U...
