Characterizing Components of the Dictyostelium Centrosome [PDF]
, 2002 Three functionally important centrosomal proteins from Dictyostelium were identified, cloned and characterized. The work focuses on the Dictyostelium-homologue of centrin and two proteins belonging to soluble gamma-tubulin complexes in other organisms ...

A Stochastic Description of Dictyostelium Chemotaxis
PLoS ONE, 2012 Chemotaxis, the directed motion of a cell toward a chemical source, plays a key role in many essential biological processes. Here, we derive a statistical model that quantitatively describes the chemotactic motion of eukaryotic cells in a chemical gradient.

Bacterial discrimination by dictyostelid amoebae reveals the complexity of ancient interspecies interactions [PDF]
, 2013 Background Amoebae and bacteria interact within predator-prey and host-pathogen relationships, but the general response of amoeba to bacteria is not well understood.
