Figure 1
The crystal structure of the truncated form of L. monocytogenes CdaA, lacking the first 100 N-terminal residues and abbreviated Δ100. (a) The biochemical reaction catalyzed by diadenylate cyclase (DAC) involves the formation of cyclic di-AMP (c-di-AMP). (b) A cartoon representation depicting the catalytically active Δ100 CdaA dimer in its postcatalytic state with c-di-AMP bound in the active site (PDB entry 6hvl). (c) Superposition of BsCdaA (gray) and LmCdaA (pale green; PDB entry 8c4p) reveals an identical binding mode of the lead compound previously designed for LmCdaA (Compound 7). The polder omit map (marine) is contoured at the +3σ level. The numbering corresponds to BsCdaA.
