Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli strains with abnormally high concentrations of bis(5'-nucleosidyl)-tetraphosphates (Ap4N) were constructed by disrupting the apaH gene that encodes Ap4N-hydrolase. Variation deletions and insertions were also introduced in apaG and ksgA, two other cistrons of the ksgA apaGH operon. In all strains studied, a correlation was found between the residual Ap4N-hydrolase activity and the intracellular...
