Persistence Increases in the Absence of the Alarmone Guanosine Tetraphosphate by Reducing Cell Growth

Most bacterial cells are stressed, and as a result, some become tolerant to antibiotics by entering a dormant state known as persistence. The key intracellular metabolite that has been linked to this persister state is guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp), the alarmone that was first linked to nutrient...
