Recent functional insights into the role of (p)ppGpp in bacterial physiology [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2015
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. In recent years, substantial progress has been made in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of (p)ppGpp metabolism and (p)ppGpp-mediated regulation.

(p)ppGpp and drug resistance

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2010
AbstractIn recent years, emerging and reemerging pathogens resistant to nearly all available antibiotics are on the rise. This limits the availability of effective antibiotics to treat infections, thus it is imperative to develop new drugs. The accumulation of alarmones guanosine tetraphosphate and guanosine pentaphosphate, collectively known as (p ...

Magic spot: (p) ppGpp

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2009
AbstractGuanosine 5′‐(tri)diphosphate, 3′‐diphosphate [(p) ppGpp] is a small nucleic acid that helps bacteria survive in limited environments. Gene chip shows that (p) ppGpp is a global transcription‐regulator of genes related to important bacterial metabolic processes.

Green magic: regulation of the chloroplast stress response by (p)ppGpp in plants and algae

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2018
International audienceThe hyperphosphorylated nucleotides guanosine pentaphosphate and tetraphosphate [together referred to as (p)ppGpp, or 'magic spot'] orchestrate a signalling cascade in bacteria that controls growth under optimal conditions and in ...

The magic dance of the alarmones (p)ppGpp

Molecular Microbiology, 2016
SummaryThe alarmones (p)ppGpp are important second messengers that orchestrate pleiotropic adaptations of bacteria and plant chloroplasts in response to starvation and stress. Here, we review our structural and mechanistic knowledge on (p)ppGpp metabolism including their synthesis, degradation and interconversion by a highly diverse set of enzymes ...

Kinetic suppression of translational errors by (p)ppGpp

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1982
The effect of (p)ppGpp on the accuracy of translation was studied in vitro using a poly(U)-programmed poly(Phe)-synthesizing system operating at incorporation rates and missense error frequencies close to the values obtained in vivo. Simulation of a relaxed phenotype in vitro was accomplished by limitation of the cognate aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase ...

Translational accuracy enhanced in vitro by (p)ppGpp

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1980
The effect of (p)ppGpp on the accuracy of translation in vitro was studied with a system that has a missense error frequency similar to that of living bacteria. When poly (U) is translated, limitation of the system in Phe increases the Leu missense error frequency.

(p)ppGpp synthetases are required for the pathogenicity of Salmonella Pullorum in chickens

Microbiological Research, 2021
Salmonella Pullorum is a pathogen specific to birds that can cause Pullorum disease in young chickens and lead to considerable economic losses in the poultry industry. During transmission and infection, S. Pullorum will encounter various environmental stresses and host defenses.

Control of bacterial transcription, translation and replication by (p)ppGpp

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2008
The small nucleotides pppGpp and ppGpp (or (p)ppGpp) are rapidly synthesized in response to nutritional stress. In Escherichia coli, the enzymes RelA and SpoT are triggered by different starvation signals to produce (p)ppGpp. In many Gram-positive bacteria this is carried out by RelA and two small homologs. (p)ppGpp, along with the transcription factor

(p)ppGpp: the magic governor of bacterial growth economy

Current Genetics, 2019
A fundamental question in microbiology is how bacterial cells manage to coordinate gene expression with cell growth during adapting to various environmental conditions. Although the cellular responses to changing environments have been extensively studied using transcriptomic and proteomic approaches, it remains poorly understood regarding the ...
