Introduction
The leptospirosis is caused by spirochaetes of pathogenic species of genus Leptospira and is a emerging zoonotic disease worldwide [1]. The ability of some Leptospira species to grow in different conditions, such as in soil, water and in different mammalian organs and in the bloodstream, suggests that the bacteria must have different signaling pathways to detect the external environment and modulate its gene expression. One way to respond to environmental changes and modulate gene expression is through the production of bis (3 ′, 5 ′) - cyclic diguanylic acid, known as cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP)[2]
