During nutrient deprivation, the bacterial cell undergoes a stress response known as the stringent response. This response is characterized by induction of the nucleotide derivative guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) that dramatically modulates the cell’s ...

The Prospects for Immigration Amendments [PDF]
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

The two PPX-GppA homologues from Mycobacterium tuberculosis have distinct biochemical activities [PDF]
Inorganic polyphosphate (poly-P), guanosine pentaphosphate (pppGpp) and guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) are ubiquitous in bacteria. These molecules play a variety of important physiological roles associated with stress resistance, persistence, and ...

Nucleotide second messengers in bacterial decision making [PDF]
Since the initial discovery of bacterial nucleotide second messengers (NSMs), we have made huge progress towards understanding these complex signalling networks. Many NSM networks contain dozens of metabolic enzymes and binding targets, whose activity is

Structural Basis for Transcription Regulation by Alarmone ppGpp [PDF]
Guanosine-tetraphosphate (ppGpp) is a major regulator of stringent control, an adaptive response of bacteria to amino acid starvation. The 2.7 A resolution structure of the Thermus thermophilus RNA polymerase (RNAP) holoenzyme in complex with ppGpp reveals that ppGpp binds to the same site near the active center in both independent RNAP molecules in ...

Stringent response mediated by modified guanosine nucleotides is conserved across bacteria and is regulated through the Rel/Spo functions. In Escherichia coli, RelA and SpoT proteins synthesize the modified nucleotides ppGpp and pppGpp, together referred

Stringent response plays an important role in the response of Enterobacteriaceae pathogens to rapid environmental changes. It has been shown that synergistic and antagonistic actions exist between the signaling molecules (p)ppGpp and DksA in several ...

The bacterial antitoxin HipB establishes a ternary complex with operator DNA and phosphorylated toxin HipA to regulate bacterial persistence [PDF]
Nearly all bacteria exhibit a type of phenotypic growth described as persistence that is thought to underlie antibiotic tolerance and recalcitrant chronic infections.

Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) with methylene blue and 660 nm LED enhances antibiotic killing of bacteria, accelerating time‐kill kinetics and reducing the MDK99 compared to antibiotics alone. SEM confirms effective cellular damage, demonstrating that PDI potentiates amoxicillin and gentamicin against tolerant bacterial populations. ABSTRACT Bacterial
