The pathogenesis of infectious diarrheal diseases is attributed to enterotoxins that cause dehydration by disrupting intestinal water absorption. We investigated patterns of genetic variation in mammalian Guanylate Cyclase-C (GC-C), an intestinal receptor targeted by bacterially-encoded heat-stable enterotoxins (STa), to determine how host species adapt in response to diarrheal infections. Our phylogenetic and functional analysis of GC-C supports longstanding evolutionary conflict with diarrheal bacteria in primates and bats, with highly variable susceptibility to STa across species. In bats, we further show that GC-C diversification has sparked compensatory mutations in the endogenous uroguanylin ligand, suggesting an unusual scenario of pathogen-driven evolution of an entire signaling axis. Together these findings suggest that conflicts with diarrheal pathogens have had far-reaching impacts on the evolution of mammalian gut physiology. Studies of evolutionary arms-races have primarily focused on interactions between host immune factors and infectious microbes. Carey et al. describe an unusual genetic conflict between diarrheal bacterial pathogens and a core intestinal signaling axis critical for maintaining proper gut physiology, broadening conceptions of the reach of pathogen-driven evolution.
