Dictyostelium discoideum: A Model System for Neurological Disorders

open access: yesCells, 2022
Background: The incidence of neurological disorders is increasing due to population growth and extended life expectancy. Despite advances in the understanding of these disorders, curative strategies for treatment have not yet eventuated. In part, this is

Spontaneous center formation in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractDictyostelium discoideum (D.d.) is a widely studied amoeba due to its capabilities of development, survival, and self-organization. During aggregation it produces and relays a chemical signal (cAMP) which shows spirals and target centers. Nevertheless, the natural emergence of these structures is still not well understood.

Initiation of multicellular differentiation in Dictyostelium discoideum is regulated by coronin A

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2014
Multicellular development of Dictyostelium is induced by starvation and is crucial for its long-term survival. Coronin A mediates the transition from growth to development of the cells and initiates the cAMP-dependent relay by regulating the response to ...

Nucleases: From Primitive Immune Defenders to Modern Biotechnology Tools

open access: yesImmunology, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 279-286, March 2025.
The evolution of nucleases is a remarkable journey, starting as primitive bacterial defenders against bacteriophages. Over time, nucleases have adapted to specialised roles within the immune systems of all forms of life, culminating in humans, where DNases and RNases serve as key components of the immune system.

CHROMOSOME REARRANGEMENTS IN DICTYOSTELIUM DISCOIDEUM [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1982
ABSTRACT A tandem duplication (D350(III,III)) of the whiB to radB interval of linkage group III has been characterized. The gene order on the duplication-bearing chromosome is: centromere, whiB500, radB+, whiB+, radB24, bsgA5, acrC4. Slow-growing, duplication-bearing strains (yellow-spored, radiation-resistant) produced four classes of ...

Growth of myxameobae of the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum in axenic culture.

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1970
1. A simple axenic medium suitable for the growth of the myxamoebae of a strain of the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum is described. 2. Procedures suitable for the growth of this strain in liquid and on solid media are described.

Stereoselective Synthesis of Aliphatic α‐Amino Acids by Chemo‐Enzymatic Hydroamination‐Hydrodesulfurisation

open access: yesAdvanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 367, Issue 4, February 18, 2025.
Abstract Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) enzymes have been extensively exploited to produce differently substituted arylalanine analogues, but their use in the stereoselective synthesis of aliphatic fatty amino acids has never been addressed. In this work, a two‐step hydroamination‐hydrodesulfurisation process has been investigated for the production

The Elmo family forms an ancient group of actin-regulating proteins

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2009
The Elmo protein family members are important mediators of small G protein activity, regulating actin-mediated processes such as chemotaxis and engulfment.
