Inorganic polyphosphate and the stringent response coordinately control cell division and cell morphology in Escherichia coli by Christopher W. Hamm, Michael J. Gray

“…Disruption of either (p)ppGpp or polyP synthesis led to the formation of filamentous cells, but simultaneous disruption of both pathways resulted in cells with heterogenous cell morphologies, including highly branched cells, severely mislocalized Z-rings, and cells containing substantial void spaces. These mutants also failed to grow when nutrients were limited, even when amino acids were added. …”
