Abstract excerpt
Streptomyces coelicolor (p)ppGpp synthetase (Rel protein) belongs to the RelA and SpoT (RelA/SpoT) family, which is involved in (p)ppGpp metabolism and the stringent response. The potential functions of the rel gene have been examined. S. coelicolor Rel has been shown to be ribosome associated, and its activity in vitro is ribosome dependent. Analysis in vivo of the active recombinant protein in well-defined...
