Bacterial Survival in Dictyostelium [PDF]
BIO-PROTOCOL, 2017 We performed an assay to test the ability of different E. coli strains to survive inside amoebal cells after ingestion. In the assay we incubated bacteria together with cells of Dictyostelium discoideum for six hours. After co-incubation most of the uningested bacteria were removed by centrifugation and the remaining uningested bacteria were killed by ...

Multi-color fluorescence live-cell imaging in Dictyostelium discoideum
Cell Structure and FunctionThe cellular slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum, a member of the Amoebozoa, has been extensively studied in cell and developmental biology. D. discoideum is unique in that they are genetically tractable, with a wealth of data accumulated over half a ...

Lipid droplet dynamics at early stages of Mycobacterium marinum infection in Dictyostelium
Cellular Microbiology, 2015 Lipid droplets exist in virtually every cell type, ranging not only from mammals to plants, but also to eukaryotic and prokaryotic unicellular organisms such as Dictyostelium and bacteria.

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Protein tandem repeats that produce frameshifts can generate new structural states and functions
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.We explored an alternative protein structure landscape by analyzing amino acid sequences from frameshifted tandem repeats—regions prone to frameshifts. These frameshifts, especially in short repeats, lead to more drastic changes than in non‐repetitive regions, often altering structure, function, localization, and potentially contributing to disease ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The Xanthomonas citri Hanks‐type kinase PknS autophosphorylates and directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK at five residues. Besides the conserved residue T51 in the σ2 domain, phosphorylation of a residue in the linker between σ2 and σ4 is critical for EcfK activation by promoting its interaction with a positively charged pocket in ...
