Guanosine monophosphate reductase from Artemia salina: Inhibition by xanthosine monophosphate and activation by diguanosine tetraphosphate

open access: yes, 2013
Authors from the Instituto de Enzimologia del C.S.I.C.In the course of studies on the metabolic role of diguanosine tetraphosphate during development of Artemia salina, a guanosine monophosphate (GMP) reductase has been found and partially purified from ...

A Physiological Basis for Nonheritable Antibiotic Resistance

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Antibiotics constitute one of the cornerstones of modern medicine. However, individuals may succumb to a bacterial infection if a pathogen survives exposure to antibiotics.

Transcription regulation of the Escherichia coli pcnB gene coding for poly(A) polymerase I: roles of ppGpp, DksA and sigma factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Poly(A) polymerase I (PAP I), encoded by the pcnB gene, is a major enzyme responsible for RNA polyadenylation in Escherichia coli, a process involved in the global control of gene expression in this bacterium through inXuencing the rate of transcript ...

Structures of two aptamers with differing ligand specificity reveal ruggedness in the functional landscape of RNA

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Two classes of riboswitches related to the ykkC guanidine-I riboswitch bind phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP) and guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp). Here we report the co-crystal structure of the PRPP aptamer and its ligand. We also report the structure

Gre factors help Salmonella adapt to oxidative stress by improving transcription elongation and fidelity of metabolic genes.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2023
Detoxification, scavenging, and repair systems embody the archetypical antioxidant defenses of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Metabolic rewiring also aids with the adaptation of bacteria to oxidative stress.

Glutamate Positively Regulates Chitinase Activity and the Biocontrol Efficacy of Pseudomonas protegens

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2023
Broad-spectrum biocontrol by Pseudomonas protegens CHA0 and other fluorescent pseudomonads is achieved through the generation of various secondary metabolites with antibiotic activities against not only other microbes but, also, nematodes and insects ...

Structural and functional insights into the mode of action of a universally conserved Obg GTPase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2014
Obg proteins are a family of P-loop GTPases, conserved from bacteria to human. The Obg protein in Escherichia coli (ObgE) has been implicated in many diverse cellular functions, with proposed molecular roles in two global processes, ribosome assembly and

Eine Universelle Nukleosid‐zu‐Nukleosid‐5′‐triphosphat‐Enzymkaskade angetrieben durch Polyphosphat

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Nukleosid‐5′‐Triphosphate (NTPs) sind wichtige Bausteine für Nukleinsäuren. Ihre chemische Synthese ist aufgrund der geringen Ausbeute der 5′‐Triphosphorylierungsreaktion nur wenig effizient. Wir stellen hier eine universelle, durch Polyphosphat angetriebene Zwei‐Enzym‐Kaskade vor, die eine direkte Phosphorylierung von Nukleosiden zu NTPs ermöglicht ...

Small molecule control of virulence gene expression in Francisella tularensis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
In Francisella tularensis, the SspA protein family members MglA and SspA form a complex that associates with RNA polymerase (RNAP) to positively control the expression of virulence genes critical for the intramacrophage growth and survival of the ...

A Universal Nucleoside‐to‐Nucleoside‐5′‐Triphosphate Enzyme Cascade Driven by Polyphosphate

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Nucleoside‐5′‐triphosphates (NTPs) are essential components for the generation of nucleic acids, yet their chemical synthesis is hindered by the low yield of nucleoside phosphorylation. Here, we present a universal, two‐enzyme nucleoside‐to‐NTP cascade that is driven by polyphosphate.
