Abstract
Cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) are now established as master regulators of bacterial physiology (cyclic di-GMP, cyclic di-AMP, 3′3′-cGAMP) and immune function (bacterial cyclic dinucleotides and host’s 2′3′-cGAMP). Metabolic enzymes that modulate the concentrations of CDNs and/or effector proteins or nucleic acids that bind to these second messengers are potential therapeutic targets for the development of antibiofilm, antivirulence, and immunomodulatory agents. Here, we discuss some of the recent advances in the development of small molecule regulators of cyclic di-GMP, cyclic di-AMP, and cGAMP signaling.
