The search for morphogenes in Dictyostelium
BioEssays, 1988AbstractClassical embryological studies have led to the suggestion that cells in developing tissues may be directed to differentiate along a particular pathway by the concentrations of molecules called morphogens. Studies of the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum, which has a simple tissue pattern consisting of only two cell types, have revealed ...

Multicellular Development of Dictyostelium
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2008INTRODUCTIONDictyostelium discoideum is a unicellular eukaryote often referred to as a “social ameba” because it can form a multicellular structure when nutrients are depleted from the immediate environment of the cells. In the laboratory, this is accomplished simply by replacing the growth medium with a buffer solution.

Differentiation and patterning in Dictyostelium
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1994Dictyostelium development is orchestrated by diffusible signals. Progress has been made in understanding how cAMP signaling triggers post-aggregative development and in defining the number of cell types that eventually differentiate. Ammonia is an unusual signal that may act by alkalinizing acidic vesicles.

Chapter 17 Transmembrane Signaling in Dictyostelium
1987Publisher Summary Dictyostelium provides a biochemically and genetically accessible system for studies of transmembrane signaling. Current techniques to control cellular sensitivity and monitor chemotaxis, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling, and adenylate cyclase activation are outlined.

Developmental Genetics, 1988
AbstractCellular slime mold amoebae have become a model system for the study of cell motility and the cytoskeleton. A basic problem which all cells face that involves the cytoskeleton is how to control their size. The varied ways in which cellular slime mold amoebae change their cell size‐by changing the size at which division occurs, by cell fusion ...
