Activation of transcription by guanosine 5'-diphosphate,3'-diphosphate, transfer ribonucleic acid, and novel protein from Escherichia coli.

A protein factor TFms) that is required for ppGpp to stimulate RNA synthesis has been purified from an eluate of crude ribosomes. TFms also has the capacity to stimulate RNA synthesis without ppGpp present. Under standard conditions the action TFms and ppGpp requires uncharged tRNA. TFms and ppGpp act at inhibition to promote the formation of rifampicin-resistant or polytrI)-resistant preinitiation complexes. In the presence of rifampicin or poly(rI), tRNA is no longer required. With lambdah80dlacPs DNA as template, ppGpp together with TFms stimulated gal RNA synthesis to a much greater extent than total RNA synthesis. The stimulation of both lac and gel RNA synthesis was increased in the presence of cyclic AMP receptor and cyclic AMP.

Guanosine 5'-diphosphate-3'-diphosphate inhibition of adenylosuccinate synthetase.

The mechanism of ppGpp inhibition of adenylosuccinate synthetase (EC 6.3.4.4) was examined. Initial rate kinetic studies demonstrate the ppGpp inhibition is competitive with respect to GTP and noncompetitive with respect to L-aspartate and IMP. This is in contrast to an earlier report (Gallant, J., Irr, J., and Cashel, M. (1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 5812-5816), which suggested that ppGpp did not bind at the GTP site. Possible reasons for the discrepancy are discussed. The potency of the ppGpp inhibition is confirmed.
