Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a halophilic, Gram-negative bacterium found in marine and estuarine ecosystems and is a significant contributor to seafood-related bacterial gastroenteritis. Cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) is a widespread secondary messenger that modulates various cellular pathways, including virulence factor production, motility, and biofilm formation. c-di-GMP is made by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs), while its breakdown is mediated by phosphodiesterases (PDEs). Although many putative DGCs and PDEs involved in c-di-GMP metabolism have been identified in V. parahaemolyticus, only a few have been thoroughly studied. Furthermore, the metabolism of c-di-GMP is influenced by various environmental factors and transcriptional regulators. This review provides an overview of the c-di-GMP signaling network in V. parahaemolyticus, focusing on recent advancements related to c-di-GMP metabolic enzyme genes and their regulatory mechanisms. Understanding the intricate mechanisms of c-di-GMP metabolism and regulation is crucial for revealing the environmental adaptation and pathogenic strategies of V. parahaemolyticus.
副溶血性弧菌是一种嗜盐革兰氏阴性菌,存在于海洋和河口生态系统中,是导致与海鲜相关的细菌性肠胃炎的重要因素。环二鸟苷酸(c-di-GMP)是一种广泛存在的第二信使,可调节各种细胞途径,包括毒力因子产生、运动性和生物膜形成。c-di-GMP由双鸟苷酸环化酶(DGCs)产生,而其分解由磷酸二酯酶(PDEs)介导。虽然在副溶血性弧菌中已鉴定出许多参与c-di-GMP代谢的假定DGCs和PDEs,但只有少数得到了深入研究。此外,c-di-GMP的代谢受多种环境因素和转录调节因子的影响。本综述概述了副溶血性弧菌中的c-di-GMP信号网络,重点关注与c-di-GMP代谢酶基因及其调节机制相关的最新进展。了解c-di-GMP代谢和调节的复杂机制对于揭示副溶血性弧菌的环境适应性和致病策略至关重要。
