Effect of guanosine tetraphosphate on in vitro protein synthesis directed by E1 and E3 colicinogenic factors. 1978

W Lotz

The in vitro synthesis of colicin E3 was found to be stimulated by guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate (ppGpp), while that of several other ColE3 plasmid-specific proteins was reduced in the presence of this nucleotide. The ColE1 plasmid-directed in vitro synthesis of colicin E1 was also found to be stimulated by ppGpp.

D006159	Guanosine Tetraphosphate	Guanosine 5'-diphosphate 2'(3')-diphosphate. A guanine nucleotide containing four phosphate groups. Two phosphate groups are esterified to the sugar moiety in the 5' position and the other two in the 2' or 3' position. This nucleotide serves as a messenger to turn off the synthesis of ribosomal RNA when amino acids are not available for protein synthesis. Synonym: magic spot I.
