Fruiting bodies of the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum increase spore transport by Drosophila
BackgroundMany microbial phenotypes are the product of cooperative interactions among cells, but their putative fitness benefits are often not well understood.

Metabolic Profile Associated With Encystation in Acanthamoeba
ABSTRACT The genus Acanthamoeba includes widespread protozoa that can cause severe infections in humans. Their ability to form resistant cysts within infected tissues complicates treatment, making it essential to understand the encystation process for developing effective therapeutic strategies.

Symbiotic bacteria, immune-like sentinel cells, and the response to pathogens in a social amoeba
Some endosymbionts living within a host must modulate their hosts' immune systems in order to infect and persist. We studied the effect of a bacterial endosymbiont on a facultatively multicellular social amoeba host.

Evolution of multicellularity in Dictyostelia [PDF]
The well-orchestrated multicellular life cycle of Dictyostelium discoideum has fascinated biologists for over a century. Self-organisation of its amoebas into aggregates, migrating slugs and fruiting structures by pulsatile cAMP signalling and their ...

ABSTRACT This review provides an in‐depth exploration of capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry (CE–MS) in biomolecular research from 2020 to 2024. CE–MS emerges as a versatile and powerful tool due to its numerous advantages, facilitating the analysis of various biomolecules, including proteins, peptides, oligonucleotides, and other metabolites ...

CHROMOSOME REARRANGEMENTS IN DICTYOSTELIUM DISCOIDEUM [PDF]
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 ...
