Abstract
Guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) is a key mediator of stringent control, an adaptive response of bacteria to amino acid starvation, and has thus been termed a bacterial alarmone. Previous X-ray crystallographic analysis has provided a structural basis for the transcriptional regulation of RNA polymerase activity by ppGpp in the thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus. Here we investigated the physiological basis of the stringent response by comparing the changes in intracellular ppGpp levels and the rate of RNA synthesis in stringent (rel(+); wild type) and relaxed (relA and relC; mutant) strains of T. thermophilus. We found that in wild-type T. thermophilus, as in other bacteria, serine hydroxamate, an amino acid analogue that inhibits tRNA(Ser) aminoacylation, elicited a stringent response characterized in part by intracellular accumulation of ppGpp and that this response was completely blocked in a relA-null mutant and partially blocked in a relC mutant harboring a mutation in the ribosomal protein L11. Subsequent in vitro assays using ribosomes isolated from wild-type and relA and relC mutant strains confirmed that (p)ppGpp is synthesized by ribosomes and that mutation of RelA or L11 blocks that activity. This conclusion was further confirmed in vitro by demonstrating that thiostrepton or tetracycline inhibits (p)ppGpp synthesis. In an in vitro system, (p)ppGpp acted by inhibiting RNA polymerase-catalyzed 23S/5S rRNA gene transcription but at a concentration much higher than that of the observed intracellular ppGpp pool size. On the other hand, changes in the rRNA gene promoter activity tightly correlated with changes in the GTP but not ATP concentration. Also, (p)ppGpp exerted a potent inhibitory effect on IMP dehydrogenase activity. The present data thus complement the earlier structural analysis by providing physiological evidence that T. thermophilus does produce ppGpp in response to amino acid starvation in a ribosome-dependent (i.e., RelA-dependent) manner. However, it appears that in T. thermophilus, rRNA promoter activity is controlled directly by the GTP pool size, which is modulated by ppGpp via inhibition of IMP dehydrogenase activity. Thus, unlike the case of Escherichia coli, ppGpp may not inhibit T. thermophilus RNA polymerase activity directly in vivo, as recently proposed for Bacillus subtilis rRNA transcription (L. Krasny and R. L. Gourse, EMBO J. 23:4473-4483, 2004).

Abstract
Viomycin-resistant strains isolated from Mycobacterium smegmatis demonstrated pleiotropic resistance to tuberactinomycin-N, capreomycin, streptomycin, and kanamycin as a result of mutational alteration of ribosomes, even though they were selected for resistance to a single antibiotic. The pleiotropic drug resistance of three mutants isolated by stepwise selection for resistance to viomycin was due to alteration of the 30S ribosomal subunit. One mutant, strain A, isolated independently by multiple-step selection to viomycin resistance, was resistant to viomycin, tuberactinomycin-N, and capreomycin through an alteration of the 50S ribosomal subunit, whereas it was sensitive to kanamycin but resistant to streptomycin through an alteration of the 30S ribosomal subunit. Three streptomycin-resistant strains, which were isolated by one-step selection at a high concentration of streptomycin, did not show significant co-resistance to any other antibiotics tested in culture and cell-free systems; streptomycin resistance in these mutants was localized on the 30S ribosomal subunit.

Abstract
Induction of cat-86 translation results from the stalling of a ribosome at a discrete location in the leader region of the transcript. Stalling destabilizes an adjacent region of secondary structure that sequesters the cat-86 ribosome binding site, thereby activating cat-86 translation. Two well characterized antibiotics, chloramphenicol and erythromycin, induce cat-86 by stalling a ribosome at the appropriate leader site. Here we demonstrate differences between the two antibiotics with respect to induction. First, induction by chloramphenicol is dependent on nucleotides in the leader sequence that are different from those necessary for erythromycin induction. Second, variants of Bacillus subtilis that are chloramphenicol resistant because of chromosome mutations permit cat-86 induction by chloramphenicol, whereas erythromycin-resistance host mutations block or greatly reduce cat-86 induction by erythromycin. Third, selected strains of B. subtilis bearing alterations in proteins of the 50S ribosomal subunit interfere with cat-86 induction by chloramphenicol, yet these strains are chloramphenicol sensitive. Lastly, induction by chloramphenicol is not reversed by removal of the antibiotic whereas erythromycin induction is reversible. The data indicate that chloramphenicol induction results from an effect of the drug that is not identical to its role as a general inhibitor of ribosome elongation. Induction by erythromycin, on the other hand, could not be distinguished from its antibiotic activity.

Abstract
Several relaxed (rel) mutants have been obtained from Streptomyces species by selecting colonies resistant to thiopeptin, an analogue of thiostrepton. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, I compared the ribosomal proteins from rel and rel+ pairs of S. antibioticus, S. lavendulae, S. griseoflavus, and S. griseus. It was found that all of the Streptomyces rel mutants thus examined had an altered or missing ribosomal protein, designated tentatively ST-L11. These rel mutants therefore could be classified as relC mutants and were highly sensitive to erythromycin or high temperature. A relC mutant of S. griseus was defective in streptomycin production, but phenotypic reversion of this defect to normal productivity was found at high incidence among progeny of the relC mutant. This phenotypic reversion did not accompany a reappearance of ribosomal protein ST-L11, and furthermore the ability of accumulating ppGpp still remained at a low level, thus suggesting existence of a mutation (named sup) which suppresses the streptomycin deficiency phenotype exhibited by the relC mutant. Genetic analysis revealed that there is a correlation between the rel mutation and the inability to produce streptomycin or aerial mycelia. The sup mutation was found to lie at a chromosomal locus distinct from that of the relC mutation. It was therefore concluded that the dependence of streptomycin production on the normal function of the relC gene could be entirely bypassed by a mutation at the suppressor locus (sup). The suppressing effect of the sup mutation on the relC mutation was blocked when the afs mutation (defective in A-factor synthesis) was introduced into a relC sup double mutant. It is proposed that the sup gene or its product can be direct or indirect target for ppGpp.

Abstract
We have investigated the induced stability of mRNA encoded by the ermC gene in Bacillus subtilis. Induction of ermC gene expression by erythromycin is known to occur at the translational level. We show that this induction is accompanied by an increase in ermC mRNA half-life from about 2 min to about 40 min. Induced stabilization of ermC mRNA occurs independently of induced translation. The regulatory sequences required for stability are promoter-proximal and can confer induced stability on large mRNAs having diverse 3' ends. Translation of the ermC leader peptide and ribosome-stalling in the leader peptide sequence are necessary for induced stabilization.

Abstract
A mutant strain of Bacillus megaterium, arising spontaneously and resistant to micrococcin , possesses ribosomes which contain an altered form of protein BM-L11 (the homologue of Escherichia coli protein L11). Reconstitution analysis has revealed that the alteration to protein BM-L11 is the sole cause of resistance in this strain.

Abstract
Mutants of Bacillus subtilis resistant to various macrolide antibiotics have been isolated and characterized with respect to their sporulation phenotype and the electrophoretic mobility of their ribosomal proteins (r-proteins). Two types of major alterations of r-protein L17, one probably due to a small deletion, are found among mutants exhibiting high-level macrolide resistance. These mutants are all temperature-sensitive for sporulation (Spots). Low-level resistance to some macrolides is found to be associated with minor alterations in r-protein L17. These mutations do not cause a defective sporulation phenotype. All of the macrolide resistance mutations map at the same locus within the Str-Spc region of the B. subtilis chromosome. Hence, changes in a single ribosomal protein can result in different sporulation phenotypes. Mutants resistant to the aminoglycoside antibiotics neomycin and kanamycin have been isolated. Approximately 5% of these are Spots. Representative mutations, neo162 and kan25, cause concomitant drug resistance and sporulation temperature-sensitivity and map a single-site lesions in the Str-Spc region of the chromosome. Strains bearing neo162 or kan25 are equally cross-resistant to streptomycin or spectinomycin. These mutations define a new B. subtilis drug resistance locus at which mutation can cause defective sporulation.

Abstract
The antibiotic, micrococcin, binds to complexes formed between bacterial 23-S ribosomal RNA and ribosomal protein L11 and, in doing so, inhibits of thiostrepton. In assay systems simulating partial reaction of protein synthesis, micrococcin inhibits a number of processes believed to involve the ribosomal A site while stimulating GTP hydrolysis dependent upon ribosomes and elongation factor EF-G. The latter effect is not observed upon ribosomes lacking a protein homologous with protein L11. Nor is it apparent upon those containing 23-S RNA previously subjected to the action of a specific methylase known to render ribosomes resistant to thiostrepton. It is concluded that stimulation by micrococcin of factor-dependent GTP hydrolysis results from the binding of the drug to its normal target site which involves 23-S RNA and protein L11.

Abstract
Most of the known antibiotics act at the level of protein biosynthesis probably due to the extraordinary complexity of the translation machinery which can be interfered with at many points. At first a survey is given of our present knowledge covering the structure and function of the prokaryotic ribosome. The most important antibiotics acting at the translational level are integrated into this network of data. The binding sites and the inhibition mechanisms of the drugs, together with the ribosomal components altered in resistant mutants are described. Finally, the points of interference with the translational machinery are indicated in an extended scheme of ribosomal functions.

Abstract
Spontaneous mutations causing resistance to the EF-Tu-specific antibiotic kirromycin have been isolated and mapped in Bacillus subtilis. Three-factor transductional and transformational crosses have placed the kir locus proximal to ery-1 and distal to strA (rpsL) and several mutations affecting elongation factors EF-G and EF-Tu, in the order: cysA strA [fus-1/ts-6(EF-G)] [ts-5(EF-Tu)] kir ery-1 spcA. Purified EF-Tu from mutant strains is more resistant to kirromycin as measured by in vitro protein synthesis and also shows a more acidic isoelectric point than wild-type EF-Tu. This indicates that the kir locus is the genetic determinant (tuf) for EF-Tu and that there is a single active gene for this enzyme in B. subtilis.

Abstract
The action of a sporulation-specific seryl protease on antibiotic-free extracts of Bacillus licheniformis cells yields a peptide that is identified as bacitracin by its biological activity, its spectral properties, and its comigration with genuine bacitracin in both paper and thin-layer chromatography. During proteolysis, a chemical structure is generated with the spectral properties of a delta-2 thiazoline ring. The yield in vitro, 4 microgram of bacitracin per mg of protein, is less than the maximal yield from sporulating cells, 75 microgram of bacitracin per mg of cell protein, but is a linear function of the amount of protein in the reaction system. Approximately 30% of the protein yielding the antibiotic is ribosomal associated, and only 25% of that amount can be removed by washing with 1 M NH4Cl. The substrate protein is a constant fraction of the cell protein throughout exponential growth and very early sporulation stages of culture development.

Abstract
A number of thiostrepton-resistant mutants of Bacillus subtilis were obtained. The thi mutations map proximally to strA. Effects of thiostrepton on polyphenylalanine synthesis with ribosomes of S-100 fractions from parent and mutant strains indicated that resistance was localized to the ribosomes. Furthermore, effects of thiostrepton on binding of [3H]GTP to ribosomes and 50S subunits from thiostrepton-sensitive and -resistant strains localized the site of resistance to the 50S subunit. In addition, revertants from thiostrepton-resistance to thiostrepton-sensitivity were obtained. Ribosomes and 50S subunits from these thiostrepton-sensitive revertants were sensitive to thiostrepton similar to parental sensitive B. subtilis.

Abstract
Among spontaneously occurring antibiotic-resistant mutants of Bacillus subtilis 168 we have identified a sub-class that is conditionally sporulative. Mutants in this sub-class are resistant to antibiotic during vegetative growth but are sensitive during sporulation. Mutants conditionally-resistant to erythromycin, kanamycin, spectinomycin, and streptomycin have been isolated and characterized by phase contrast microscopy and with respect to their ability to synthesize heat-resistant endospores or the sporulation-associated enzyme alkaline phosphatase. The results suggest that several entirely different genetic lesions may result in this single phenotype. This group includes mutants whose properties suggest that both th 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits may be altered concomitant with early spore specific metabolism. The blockage imposed by antibiotic may be at or near Stage 2 of sporulation.

Abstract
Sporangiomycin and micrococcin inhibit the binding of aminoacyl-transfer ribonucleic acid into the ribosomal A site in intact bacterial protoplasts. They also prevent the assembly of [ribosome-elongation factor G-guanine nucleotide] complexes in vitro and compete with [35S]thiostrepton for ribosomal binding sites. We conclude that micrococcin and sporangiomycin block the ribosomal A site in the vicinity of the complex guanosine triphosphatase center and so resemble thiostrepton in their modes of action.
