Mammalian cells do not have a stringent response

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 1980
AbstractA key attribute of the stringent response of bacteria is the rapid inhibition of ribosomal RNA synthesis mediated by unusual nucleotides in response to uncharged tRNA. The question as to whether mammalian cells show a stringent response analogous to that of bacteria was critically tested by the effective rapid amino acid starvation of both ...

Inefficiency of the stringent response in the fungus Mucor

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1980
Abstract Removal of a required amino acid from the growth medium or addition of cycloheximide caused an immediate stoppage of growth and protein synthesis in the fungus Mucor racemosus . However, RNA synthesis persisted for several hours at rates that only gradually decreased under the same circumstances. An analysis of the major classes of RNA

The Stringent Response—21 Years On

1974
During normal growth, bacteria synthesize no more ribosomes than can be engaged with high efficiency in protein synthesis (1). The molecular mechanism maintaining this fine balance is clearly of crucial importance in determining the growth characteristics of the cell.

Impact of the plastidial stringent response in plant growth and stress responses

Nature Plants, 2015
The regulatory nucleotide guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate (ppGpp), which was originally identified in Escherichia coli, controls the expression of a large gene set and many enzyme activities. The ppGpp-dependent control of cell activities is referred to as the stringent response.

Structural Insights into the Stringent Response

Science's STKE, 2004
The stringent response allows bacteria to survive conditions of amino acid starvation through regulation of transcription by derivatives of guanosine triphosphate or guanosine diphosphate collectively called alarmone or ppGpp [for guanosine 3′-diphosphate 5′-triphosphate or guanosine 3′,5′-bis(diphosphate)].

Uncharged tRNA, protein synthesis, and the bacterial stringent response

Molecular Microbiology, 1990
SummaryUncharged tRNA has been shown in vivo to have an active role both in the stringent response, and in modulating the rate of translational elongation. Both of these effects appear to be mediated by codon–anticodon interactions on the ribosome.

Induction of Stringent Response by Streptomycin in Bacillus subtilis Cells

The Journal of Biochemistry, 1985
A stringent response was induced in Bacillus subtilis vegetative cells by streptomycin. This was confirmed as follows: In B. subtilis stringent cells (BR16S), stable RNA synthesis was repressed, and pppGpp and ppGpp were transiently synthesized in the presence of required amino acids and streptomycin.

Regulation of mitochondrial transcription during the stringent response in yeast

Current Genetics, 1992
In yeast (S. cerevisiae) the stringent response is known to include rapid, selective, and severe transcriptional curtailment for genes specifying cytoplasmic rRNAs and r-proteins. We have shown that transcription of the mitochondrial 21S rRNA gene is also congruently and selectively curtailed during the yeast stringent response.

The Stringent Response of Salmonella Typhimurium

2021
Bacteria inhabit diverse environmental niches and consequently, must modulate their metabolism to adapt to stress. The nucleotide second messengers guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine pentaphosphate (pppGpp) (collectively referred to as (p)ppGpp) are essential for survival during nutrient starvation.
