D264G | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation specifically abolishes (p)ppGpp synthetase activity without affecting other potential functions of the protein. Loss of the (p)ppGpp synthetase activity results in failure to grow on minimal medium and requirement for valine, leucine, isoleucine, threonine, and methionine, and a weaker requirement for arginine, histidine, and tryptophan addition | Bacillus subtilis |
D72G | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation specifically abolishes (p)ppGpp synthetase activity without affecting other potential functions of the protein. Loss of the (p)ppGpp synthetase activity results in failure to grow on minimal medium and requirement for valine, leucine, isoleucine, threonine, and methionine, and a weaker requirement for arginine, histidine, and tryptophan addition | Bacillus subtilis |
D87G | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation specifically abolishes (p)ppGpp synthetase activity without affecting other potential functions of the protein. Loss of the (p)ppGpp synthetase activity results in failure to grow on minimal medium and requirement for valine, leucine, isoleucine, threonine, and methionine, and a weaker requirement for arginine, histidine, and tryptophan addition | Bacillus subtilis |
additional information | generation of strain JDW1464 (relAD264G ywaCD87GyjbMD72G) by substituting a conserved aspartic acid residue in each of the three (p)ppGpp synthetases, corresponding to D264 in RelA, D87 in YwaC, and D72 in YjbM, with glycine | Bacillus subtilis |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
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 | Bacillus subtilis |
physiological function | guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5'-triphosphate, (p)ppGpp, synthesis is required for amino acid prototrophy | Bacillus subtilis |
