Inducible expression of (pp)pGpp synthetases in Staphylococcus aureus is associated with activation of stress response genes.
The stringent response is characterized by the synthesis of the messenger molecules pppGpp, ppGpp or pGpp (here collectively designated (pp)pGpp). The phenotypic consequences resulting from (pp)pGpp accumulation vary among species and can be mediated by different underlying mechanisms. Most genome-w...
