Fat-containing cells are eliminated during Dictyostelium development
Triacylglycerol is a universal storage molecule for metabolic energy in living organisms. However, Dictyostelium amoebae, that have accumulated storage fat from added fatty acids do not progress through the starvation period preceding the development of ...

Regulation of Dictyostelium morphogenesis by RapGAP3
Rap1 is a key regulator of cell adhesion and cell motility in Dictyostelium. Here, we identify a Rap1-specific GAP protein (RapGAP3) and provide evidence that Rap1 signaling regulates cell-cell adhesion and cell migration within the multicellular organism.

Convective Instability and Boundary Driven Oscillations in a Reaction-Diffusion-Advection Model
In a reaction-diffusion-advection system, with a convectively unstable regime, a perturbation creates a wave train that is advected downstream and eventually leaves the system.

Evidence for nucleolar subcompartments in Dictyostelium
The nucleolus is a multifunctional nuclear compartment usually consisting of two to three subcompartments which represent stages of ribosomal biogenesis. It is linked to several human diseases including viral infections, cancer, and neurodegeneration.

Dictyostelium discoideum protocols
As well highlighted and stressed by the two editors (Ludwig Eichinger, Center for Biochemistry, Medical Faculty, University of Cologne, Köln, Germany and Francisco Rivero, Center for Cardiovascular and Metabolic research, the Hull York Medical School, University of Hull, UK), Dictyostelium discoideum is an acclaimed member of the so-called model ...
