Make and break the alarmone: regulation of (p)ppGpp synthetase/hydrolase enzymes in bacteria
Bacteria use dedicated mechanisms to respond adequately to fluctuating environments and to optimize their chances of survival in harsh conditions. One of the major stress responses used by virtually all bacteria relies on the sharp accumulation of an ...

Fatty acid synthesis in Escherichia coli and its applications towards the production of fatty acid based biofuels [PDF]
The idea of renewable and regenerative resources has inspired research for more than a hundred years. Ideally, the only spent energy will replenish itself, like plant material, sunlight, thermal energy or wind.

Virulence expression in the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 042 requires the transcriptional activator AggR. We show in this report that, as reported for other virulence factors, the nucleotide second messenger (p)ppGpp is needed for a high ...

Microbial Cell Factories / Evaluation of three industrial Escherichia coli strains in fed-batch cultivations during high-level SOD protein production [PDF]
Background: In the biopharmaceutical industry, Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains are among the most frequently used bacterial hosts for producing recombinant proteins because they allow a simple process set-up and they are Food and Drug Administration ...

Understanding how bacteria coordinate gene expression with biomass growth to adapt to various stress conditions remains a grand challenge in biology. Stress response is often associated with dramatic accumulation of cellular guanosine tetra- or penta ...
