Guanosine 5'-diphosphate 3'-diphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine S'-triphosphate 3'-diphosphate (pppGpp) play a central role in the adaptation of bacterial and plant cells to nutritional and environmental stresses and in bacterial resistance to antibiotics. These compounds have historically been detected and quantified by two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography of P-32-radiolabeled nucleotides. We report a new method to quantify ppGpp and pppGpp in complex biochemical matrix using ion chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry. The method is based on isotopic dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) using C-13 to accurately quantify the nucleotides. However, the loss of a phosphate group from pppGpp during the sample preparation process results in the erroneous quantification of ppGpp. This bias was corrected by adding an extra N-15 isotope dilution dimension. This double-spike IDMS method was applied to quantify the ppGpp and pppGpp in Escherichia coli and in a mutant strain deleted for gppA (encoding the ppGpp phosphohydrolase) before and after exposure of both strains to serine hydroxamate, known to trigger the accumulation of these nucleotides.
