MAPKs in development: insights from Dictyostelium signaling pathways
Mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) play important roles in the development of eukaryotic organisms through the regulation of signal transduction pathways stimulated by external signals.

Lysosomes appear as the auto-fluorescent vacuoles in Dictyostelium discoideum cells
Dictyostelium discoideum cells contain auto-fluorescent vacuoles. To determine the identity of these vacuoles, the fluorescent dye 4-nitro-7-(1-piperazinyl)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-PZ) was used to stain the lysosomes in D. discoideum cells. Neither the

Comparative genomics of the social amoebae Dictyostelium discoideum and Dictyostelium purpureum [PDF]
Abstract Background The social amoebae (Dictyostelia) are a diverse group of Amoebozoa that achieve multicellularity by aggregation and undergo morphogenesis into fruiting bodies with terminally differentiated spores and stalk cells.

Fate and regulation of anterior-like cells in Dictyostelium slugs [PDF]
A pattern of two tissue types exists in the Dictyostelium slug. Contained within the posterior tissue are anterior-like cells which comprise about 10% of the developing cell mass.

Extracellular signaling in Dictyostelium
In the last few decades, we have learned a considerable amount about how eukaryotic cells communicate with each other, and what it is the cells are telling each other. The simplicity of Dictyostelium discoideum, and the wide variety of available tools to study this organism, makes it the equivalent of a hydrogen atom for cell and developmental biology.

BTG interacts with retinoblastoma to control cell fate in Dictyostelium. [PDF]
In the genesis of many tissues, a phase of cell proliferation is followed by cell cycle exit and terminal differentiation. The latter two processes overlap: genes involved in the cessation of growth may also be important in triggering differentiation ...

In this study, native spores surrounded by fluorescent substances in the spore mass of Dictyostelium discoideum were found to be resistant to relatively strong ultraviolet-C (UV-C) irradiation (2880 J/m2).

Twisted scroll waves organize Dictyostelium mucoroides slugs [PDF]
Cellular slime moulds (Dictyosteloids) are characterised by at least two different modes of slug migration. Most species, e.g. Dictyostelium mucoroides, produce a stalk continuously during slug migration, while a few species, e.g.

We have developed a fluorescence assay system to monitor the protein levels of human phenylalanine hydroxylase (hPAH). Wild-type (WT) and three mutant hPAHs (I65T, L255V, and S349L) were expressed as green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged forms in a PAH ...
