Enzyme DgcZ has been co-crystallized with Zinc conforming it to its inactivated conformation. The CZB domain is common to many bacterial lineages, appearing most commonly in bacterial chemoreceptors involved in <span class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemotaxis]</span>chemotaxis. The second most common group of CZB domains is that of DgcZ homologs. [1]. The domain has an important role in signal transduction of bacteria[1]. 30 small bacterial proteins of family PRK0984 from differing strands of ''E. coli'' contain a CZB domain N-terminal to a GGDEF domain[1]. The GGEEF domain of DgcZ is common to this family of enzymes containing the GGDEF domain. ''E. coli'' DgcZ is a protein made of two domains each of which is a symmetric homodimer. The GGEEF domain is catalytic in that it contains the active sites used for cyclizing GTP into c-di-GMP. The CZB domain is used for ligand-mediated regulation of c-di-GMP production. Zinc binds as an allosteric inhibitor in coordination with four residues to shift the protein into an inactive conformation.
