malfunction
Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains expressing the synthetase-dead RelMtb H344Y mutant do not persist in mice. Deletion of a second predicted (p)ppGpp synthetase has no effect on pathogenesis, demonstrating. Expression of an allele encoding the hydrolase-dead RelMtb mutant, RelMtb H80A, decreases the growth rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and changes the colony morphology of the bacteria. RelMtb H80A expression during acute or chronic Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in mice is lethal to the infecting bacteria. Phenotypes, overview
malfunction
GTP dysregulation in Bacillus subtilis cells lacking (p)ppGpp results in phenotypic amino acid auxotrophy and failure to adapt to nutrient downshift and regulate biosynthesis genes. Loss of the (p)ppGpp synthetase activity results in a failure of Bacillus subtilis to grow on minimal medium and causes the requirement for valine, leucine, isoleucine, threonine, and methionine, and a weaker requirement for arginine, histidine, and tryptophan addition; GTP dysregulation in Bacillus subtilis cells lacking (p)ppGpp results in phenotypic amino acid auxotrophy and failure to adapt to nutrient downshift and regulate biosynthesis genes.

physiological function
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the stringent response to amino acid starvation is mediated by the enzyme Rel (RelMtb), which transfers a diphosphate from ATP to GDP or GTP to synthesize guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-diphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate (pppGpp), respectively. (p)ppGpp then influences numerous metabolic processes. RelMtb also encodes a second, distinct catalytic domain that hydrolyzes (p)ppGpp into diphosphate and GDP or GTP. RelMtb is required for chronic Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in C57BL/6 mice. The RelMtb (p)ppGpp synthetase activity is required for maintaining bacterial titers during chronic infection, RelMtb is the major contributor to (p)ppGpp production during infection, RelMtb (p)ppGpp hydrolase activity is essential for acute and chronic infection of mice
physiological function
guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy; guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy; guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy
physiological function
-
guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine pentaphosphate (pppGpp), collectively termed (p)ppGpp, act as alarmones that globally reprogram cellular physiology during various stress conditions. Enzymes of the RelA/SpoT homology (RSH) family synthesize (p)ppGpp by transferring diphosphate from ATP to GDP or GTP. ppGpp and pppGpp execute different functional roles

guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy; guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy; guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy; guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine pentaphosphate (pppGpp), collectively termed (p)ppGpp, act as alarmones that globally reprogram cellular physiology during various stress conditions.

physiological function
-
in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the stringent response to amino acid starvation is mediated by the enzyme Rel (RelMtb), which transfers a diphosphate from ATP to GDP or GTP to synthesize guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-diphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate (pppGpp), respectively. (p)ppGpp then influences numerous metabolic processes. RelMtb also encodes a second, distinct catalytic domain that hydrolyzes (p)ppGpp into diphosphate and GDP or GTP. RelMtb is required for chronic Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in C57BL/6 mice. The RelMtb (p)ppGpp synthetase activity is required for maintaining bacterial titers during chronic infection, RelMtb is the major contributor to (p)ppGpp production during infection, RelMtb (p)ppGpp hydrolase activity is essential for acute and chronic infection of mice
