The expression region of this recombinant Escherichia coli (strain K12) spoT covers amino acids 1-702. The calculated molecular weight for this spoT protein is 86.8 kDa. The spoT protein was expressed in e.coli. The spoT coding gene included the N-terminal 10xHis tag and C-terminal Myc tag, which simplifies the detection and purification processes of the recombinant spoT protein in following stages of expression and purification.
Escherichia coli SpoT is a bifunctional enzyme involved in the stringent response, a regulatory mechanism that enables bacteria to adapt to environmental stress conditions. SpoT possesses (p)ppGpp synthase and hydrolase activities, allowing it to control the levels of guanosine pentaphosphate and tetraphosphate [(p)ppGpp], collectively known as alarmones. During nutrient limitation or stress, SpoT synthesizes (p)ppGpp, signaling a global shift in cellular processes, including a slowdown in growth and changes in gene expression. Conversely, SpoT can hydrolyze (p)ppGpp when conditions become more favorable. This dual functionality allows SpoT to finely tune the bacterial response to varying environmental cues, contributing to bacterial survival and adaptation strategies.There are currently no reviews for this product.
