Comments [?]

Function Diadenylate cyclase that catalyzes the condensation of 2 ATP molecules into cyclic di-AMP (c-di-AMP). c-di-AMP is a second messenger for intracellular signal transduction involved in the control of important regulatory processes such as osmoregulation.
Catalytic activity RHEA:35655: 2 ATP = 3',3'-c-di-AMP + 2 diphosphate
EC 2.7.7.85
Cofactor Mn(2+)
Similarity Belongs to the adenylate cyclase family. DacZ subfamily.
