SHX addition leads to severe growth inhibition and triggers ppGpp and pppGpp synthesis. (A) Growth curve of wild type P. putida KT2440 in M9 medium supplemented with 3 g⋅L–1 glucose. SHX (0.2 mM) was added at t = 0 min. The growth phases are delimited by vertical dashed lines: before t = 0, initial exponential growth; from 0 to 60 min, growth arrest; from 60 to 150 min, second growth phase; after 150 min, stationary phase. Intracellular concentrations (micromoles per gram of cell dry weight—μmol gCDW–1) of (B) ppGpp, (C) pppGpp and (D) (p)ppGpp (ppGpp + pppGpp) from 0 to 180 min. The results obtained from the other biological replicates are shown in Supplementary Figure 1.
