ALT The image is the graphical abstract from Kim et al., Cell Reports, 2024. On the left-hand panel, there is a cartoon depiction showing that that accumulation of diribonucleotides in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is detrimental to growth. When the wild type bacteria are grown on an agar dish, the colony size is normal. When only the gene that encodes Oligoribonuclease is deleted, colonies are small. When the genes that encode both Oligoribonuclease and RNase AM are deleted, the bacteria die. On the right-hand panel, there are ribbon diagrams of the Oligoribonuclease protein and RNase AM protein showing where the diribonucleotide pGpG binds in each protein.
