A meet-up of two second messengers: the c-di-AMP receptor DarB controls (p)ppGpp synthesis in Bacillus subtilis
In several bacteria, cyclic di-AMP mediates potassium (K+) and osmotic homeostasis. Here, the authors show that DarB, a Bacillus subtilis protein previously reported to bind cyclic di-AMP, interacts with the (p)ppGpp synthetase/hydrolase Rel in a K+-dependent manner in turn leading to Rel-dependent...
