Abstract excerpt
RelA/SpoT homologs (RSHs) are ubiquitous bacterial enzymes that synthesize and hydrolyze (p)ppGpp in response to environmental challenges. Bacteria cannot survive in hosts and produce infection without activating the (p)ppGpp-mediated stringent response, but it is not yet understood how the enzymatic activities of RSHs are controlled. Using UV crosslinking and deep sequencing, we show that Escherichia coli RelA...
