Structural Analysis of (p)ppGpp Reveals Its Versatile Binding Pattern for Diverse Types of Target Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
(p)ppGpp, highly phosphorylated guanosine, are global regulatory nucleotides that modulate several biochemical events in bacterial physiology ranging from core central dogma to various metabolic pathways.

Calibrating the Bacterial Growth Rate Speedometer: A Re-evaluation of the Relationship Between Basal ppGpp, Growth, and RNA Synthesis in Escherichia coli

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The molecule guanosine tetraphophosphate (ppGpp) is most commonly considered an alarmone produced during acute stress. However, ppGpp is also present at low concentrations during steady-state growth.

Roles of transcriptional and translational control mechanisms in regulation of ribosomal protein synthesis in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bacterial ribosome biogenesis is tightly regulated to match nutritional conditions and to prevent formation of defective ribosomal particles. InEscherichia coli, most ribosomal protein (r-protein) synthesis is coordinated with rRNA synthesis by a ...

Synthetic (p)ppGpp analogue is an inhibitor of stringent response in mycobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bacteria elicit an adaptive response against hostile conditions such as starvation and other kinds of stresses. Their ability to survive such conditions depends, in part, on stringent response pathways.

Transcriptional Responses to ppGpp and DksA [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology, 2018
The stringent response to nutrient deprivation is a stress response found throughout the bacterial domain of life. Although first described in proteobacteria for matching ribosome synthesis to the cell's translation status and for preventing formation of defective ribosomal particles, the response is actually much broader, regulating many hundreds of ...

The Impact of the Stringent Response on TRAFAC GTPases and Prokaryotic Ribosome Assembly

open access: yesCells, 2019
Many facets of ribosome biogenesis and function, including ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcription, 70S assembly and protein translation, are negatively impacted upon induction of a nutrient stress-sensing signalling pathway termed the stringent response ...

Activation of the Listeria monocytogenes Virulence Program by a Reducing Environment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Upon entry into the host cell cytosol, the facultative intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes coordinates the expression of numerous essential virulence factors by allosteric binding of glutathione (GSH) to the Crp-Fnr family transcriptional ...

Small Alarmone Synthetases RelP and RelQ of Staphylococcus aureus Are Involved in Biofilm Formation and Maintenance Under Cell Wall Stress Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The stringent response is characterized by the synthesis of the alarmone (p)ppGpp. The phenotypic consequences resulting from (p)ppGpp accumulation vary among species, and for several pathogenic bacteria, it has been shown that the activation of the ...

An Interplay among FIS, H-NS, and Guanosine Tetraphosphate Modulates Transcription of the Escherichia coli cspA Gene under Physiological Growth Conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
CspA, the most characterized member of the csp gene family of Escherichia coli, is highly expressed not only in response to cold stress, but also during the early phase of growth at 37°C.

Novel (p)ppGpp Binding and Metabolizing Proteins of Escherichia coli

open access: yesmBio, 2018
The alarmone (p)ppGpp plays pivotal roles in basic bacterial stress responses by increasing tolerance of various nutritional limitations and chemical insults, including antibiotics.
