| Function | May serve as a negative regulator of cellulose synthesis (as has been suggested for S.typhimurium); overexpression inhibits cell aggregation in strains able to produce adhesive curli fimbriae. Cyclic-di-GMP is a second messenger which controls cell surface-associated traits in bacteria. |
