We have analyzed the cyclic nucleotide (cNMP)-binding protein and
nucleotide cyclase superfamilies using Bayesian computational methods
of protein family identification and classification. In addition to the
known cNMP-binding proteins (cNMP-dependent kinases, cNMP-gated
channels, cAMP-guanine nucleotide exchange factors, and bacterial
cAMP-dependent transcription factors), new functional groups of
cNMP-binding proteins were identified, including putative ABC-transporter subunits, translocases, and esterases. Classification of the nucleotide cyclases revealed subtle differences in sequence conservation of the active site that distinguish the five classes of
cyclases: the multicellular eukaryotic adenylyl cyclases, the eukaryotic receptor-type guanylyl cyclases, the eukaryotic soluble guanylyl cyclases, the unicellular eukaryotic and prokaryotic adenylyl
cyclases, and the putative prokaryotic guanylyl cyclases. Phylogenetic
distribution of the cNMP-binding proteins and cyclases was analyzed,
with particular attention to the 22 complete archaeal and eubacterial
genome sequences. Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and
Synechocystis PCC6803 were each found to encode several more putative cNMP-binding proteins than other prokaryotes; many of these
proteins are of unknown function. M. tuberculosis also encodes several more putative nucleotide cyclases than other prokaryotic species.
