The <scene name='69/694239/Ggeef_domain_dgcz/2'>GGEEF</scene> Domain of Diguanylate Cyclase is the active site of the protein and has two amino acid sequences of GGEEF which allows for binding of two GTP molecules. The Active site can be divided up into two enzymatic <scene name='69/694239/Ggeef_domain_half_site_dgcz/1'>half-sites</scene>, each with a GGEEF domain for binding a single GTP molecule. DgcZ binds the guanine base of GTP through hydrogen bonds to <scene name='69/694239/Gtp_guanine_bonds_asn_asp_dgcz/4'>Asn173 and Asp 182</scene>. The ribose portion of GTP is bound loosely and the alpha phosphate is not bound at all so that it is available for attack by the 3 prime hydroxyl group on another GTP. A <scene name='69/694239/Gtp_magnesium_cofactors_dgcz/1'>Magnesium ion</scene> acts as a cofactor for each half-site, helping to stabilize the negative charges on the phosphates of GTP. | The <scene name='69/694239/Ggeef_domain_dgcz/2'>GGEEF</scene> Domain of Diguanylate Cyclase is the active site of the protein and has two amino acid sequences of GGEEF which allows for binding of two GTP molecules.
