Abstract Objectives To determine the characteristics of the endodontic microbiome. Material and Methods Saliva, plaque, and infected root canal wall dentin of two teeth suffering from apical periodontitis were harvested from a 58‐year‐old man. Bacterial DNA was extracted from each sample, and 16S rRNA gene analysis targeting the V3–V4 region was ...

Recent functional insights into the role of (p)ppGpp in bacterial physiology
The alarmones guanosine tetraphosphate and guanosine pentaphosphate (collectively referred to as (p)ppGpp) are involved in regulating growth and several different stress responses in bacteria.

Accumulation of guanosine tetraphosphate induced by polymixin and gramicidin in Escherichia coli.
International audienceThe effects of two polypeptide antibiotics, polymixin B and gramicidin S, on the intracellular pool size and turnover of guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) were analyzed in stringent (relA+) and relaxed (relA) strains of Escherichia ...

T7 phage factor required for managing RpoS in Escherichia coli [PDF]
T7 development in Escherichia coli requires the inhibition of the housekeeping form of the bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP), Eσ70, by two T7 proteins: Gp2 and Gp5.7.

Biochemical characterization of Gppa-ppx homologues from Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Inorganic polyphosphate (poly-P), guanosine pentaphosphate (pppGpp) and guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) are present within all bacterial cells. These molecules play a variety of important physiological roles; especially regarding stress resistance ...

Arabidopsis RelA/SpoT homologs implicate (p)ppGpp in plant signaling
Arabidopsis RPP5 is a member of a large class of pathogen resistance genes encoding nucleotide-binding sites and leucine-rich repeat domains. Yeast two-hybrid analysis showed that RPP5 specifically interacts with At-RSH1, an Arabidopsis RelA/SpoT homolog.

Hit the right spots:Cell cycle control by phosphorylated guanosines in alphaproteobacteria
The class Alphaproteobacteria includes Gram-negative free-living, symbiotic and obligate intracellular bacteria, as well as important plant, animal and human pathogens. Recent work has established the key antagonistic roles that phosphorylated guanosines,
