OXYGEN GRADIENTS CAUSE PATTERN ORIENTATION IN DICTYOSTELIUM CELL CLUMPS [PDF]
, 1981 We have investigated the formation of the prestalk-prespore pattern in Dictyottelium discoideum. Pattern formation occurs in clumps of Dictyostelium cells embedded in agar under a 100% oxygen atmosphere.

Measuring cell adhesion forces with the atomic force microscope at the molecular level [PDF]
, 2002 In the past 25 years many techniques have been developed to characterize cell adhesion and to quantify adhesion forces. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been used to measure forces in the pico-newton range, an experimental technique known as force ...

Biochemical and Structural Characterisation of a Bacterial Lactoperoxidase
ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 2, January 14, 2025.This study presents the biochemical and structural characterization of CyanoPOX, a heme‐containing peroxidase from Cyanobacterium sp. TDX16. Expressed in E. coli, the enzyme exhibits properties similar to bovine lactoperoxidase despite low sequence identity.

Centromere sequence and dynamics in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2009 Centromeres play a pivotal role in the life of a eukaryote cell, perform an essential and conserved function, but this has not led to a standard centromere structure. It remains currently unclear, how the centromeric function is achieved by widely differing structures.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 Dictyostelium cells are forest soil amoebae, which feed on bacteria and proliferate as solitary cells until bacteria are consumed. Starvation triggers a change in life style, forcing cells to gather into aggregates to form multicellular organisms capable
