  • Title: Nucleotide specificity of stringent factor and the synthesis of analogs of guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate and guanosine 5'-triphosphate 3'-diphosphate.
    Author: Sy J.
    Journal: Biochemistry; 1975 Mar 11; 14(5):970-3. PubMed ID: 1092330.
    Abstract:
    The ribosome-dependent stringent factor reaction was found to be nonspecific with regard to the number of phosphate groups linked to the 5' position of guanosine nucleotides. Both GMP and guanosine 5'-tetraphosphate could accept a pyrophosphoryl group from ATP although at a much lower rate than GDP or GTP. Guanosine 5'-monophosphate 3'-diphosphate and guanosine 5'-tetraphosphate 3'-diphosphate were the products of these reactions. Furthermore, 3'-linked analogs of guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate and guanosine 5'-triphosphate 3'-diphosphate were synthesized from the corresponding ATP analog, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate). The stringent factor catalyzed reverse reaction was found to be specific for guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate, and was essentially inactive to the isomeric form, guanosine 5'-diphosphate 2'-diphosphate.
