FunctionCNPD3_MYCTU Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase with a dual-specificity for the second messengers cAMP and cGMP (PubMed:16313172, PubMed:18757371). Can use 2',3'-cAMP, 2',3'-cGMP, 3',5'-cAMP, 3',5'-cGMP and 3',5'-cUMP (PubMed:16313172, PubMed:18757371, PubMed:19801656). Hydrolysis of 2',3'-cAMP produces a mixture of 3'-AMP (major product) and 2'-AMP (minor product) (PubMed:18757371). In vitro, is 150-fold more active in hydrolyzing 2',3'-cAMP than 3',5'-cAMP (PubMed:18757371). Can also hydrolyze the model substrates p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP), bis-(p-nitrophenyl phosphate) (bis(pNPP)) and p-nitrophenyl phenylphosphonate (pNPPP) (PubMed:16313172, PubMed:18757371, PubMed:19801656). Plays an important regulatory role in modulating the intracellular concentration of cAMP, thereby influencing cAMP-dependent processes (PubMed:16313172). May play a role in pathogenicity, not only by hydrolyzing cAMP, but also by altering properties of the cell wall (PubMed:19801656).[1] [2] [3] Overexpression elicits a transcriptional response that is independent of the phosphodiesterase activity. It does not alter the levels of cAMP-CRP regulated genes, even though cAMP levels are reduced in cells.[4] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedMycobacterium tuberculosis utilizes many mechanisms to establish itself within the macrophage, and bacterially derived cAMP is important in modulating the host cellular response. Although the genome of M. tuberculosis is endowed with a number of mammalian-like adenylyl cyclases, only a single cAMP phosphodiesterase has been identified that can decrease levels of cAMP produced by the bacterium. We present the crystal structure of the full-length and sole cAMP phosphodiesterase, Rv0805, found in M. tuberculosis, whose orthologs are present only in the genomes of slow growing and pathogenic mycobacteria. The dimeric core catalytic domain of Rv0805 adopts a metallophosphoesterase-fold, and the C-terminal region builds the active site and contributes to multiple substrate utilization. Localization of Rv0805 to the cell wall is dependent on its C terminus, and expression of either wild type or mutationally inactivated Rv0805 in M. smegmatis alters cell permeability to hydrophobic cytotoxic compounds. Rv0805 may therefore play a key role in the pathogenicity of mycobacteria, not only by hydrolyzing bacterial cAMP, but also by moonlighting as a protein that can alter cell wall functioning.
