Chromatin Structure in the Cellular Slime Mold Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]
, 1978 The structure of Dictyostelium discoideum chromatin has been studied by the following techniques: electron microscopy, staphylococcal nuclease digestion, acrylamide gel electrophoresis, sucrose gradient centrifugation, and melting.

Silanes to Silatranes: Robust Functionalization for Single‐Molecule Force Spectroscopy
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.3‐(aminopropyl)silatrane (APS) has superior stability for surface functionalization in single‐molecule force spectroscopy experiments compared to conventional silane‐based methods. This paper utilizes bacterial adhesin attachment to demonstrate the advantages of APS‐based surface functionalization in single‐molecule unfolding experiments of a model ...

Fluctuation theorem applied to Dictyostelium discoideum system [PDF]
, 2007 In this paper, we analyze the electrotactic movement of Dictyostelium discoideum from the viewpoint of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Because we can observe fluctuating behavior of cellular trajectories, we analyze the probability distribution of

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 26, 8 May 2026.ABSTRACT Inositol pyrophosphates (PP‐InsPs) are central regulators of eukaryotic signaling events. While certain PP‐InsP isomers have been conclusively linked to the regulation of phosphate homeostasis through interaction with SPX domain‐containing proteins in plants, the functions of the recently discovered isomer 4/6‐PP‐InsP5 remain largely unknown ...

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) play important molecular roles in cells even though they do not adopt a stable structure. Relative to structured regions, IDRs have skewed amino acid compositions favoring polar and charged amino acids. This feature is a major contributor to the biophysical behavior and in vivo activity of IDRs, but the ...

Triparental inheritance in Dictyostelium [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018 Sex promotes the recombination and reassortment of genetic material and is prevalent across eukaryotes, although our knowledge of the molecular details of sexual inheritance is scant in several major lineages. In social amoebae, sex involves a promiscuous mixing of cytoplasm before zygotes consume the majority of cells, but for ...
