摘要

En 中文
As rapidly growing bacteria begin to exhaust essential nutrients, they enter a state of reduced growth, ultimately leading to stasis or quiescence. Investigation of the response to nutrient limitation has focused largely on the consequences of amino acid starvation, known as the stringent response. Here, an uncharged tRNA in the A-site of the ribosome stimulates the ribosome-associated protein RelA to synthesize the hyperphosphorylated guanosine nucleotides (p)ppGpp that mediate a global slowdown of growth and biosynthesis. Investigations of the stringent response typically employ experimental methodologies that rapidly stimulate (p)ppGpp synthesis by abruptly increasing the fraction of uncharged tRNAs, either by explicit amino starvation or by inhibition of tRNA charging. Consequently, these methodologies inhibit protein translation, thereby interfering with the cellular pathways that respond to nutrient limitation. Thus, complete and/or rapid starvation is a problematic experimental paradigm for investigating bacterial responses to physiologically relevant nutrient-limited states.
