AbstractHelp

The functions of Escherichia coli RelA and SpoT differ somewhat. RelA (EC:2.7.6.5) produces pppGpp (or ppGpp) from ATP and GTP (or GDP). SpoT (EC:3.1.7.2) degrades ppGpp, but may also act as a secondary ppGpp synthetase. The two proteins are strongly similar. In many species, a single homologue to SpoT and RelA appears reponsible for both ppGpp synthesis and ppGpp degradation.

(p)ppGpp is a regulatory metabolite of the stringent response, but appears also to be involved in antibiotic biosynthesis in some species.
