Retrotransposon Domestication and Control in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Transposable elements, identified in all eukaryotes, are mobile genetic units that can change their genomic position. Transposons usually employ an excision and reintegration mechanism, by which they change position, but not copy number.

Luminal Phospholipase D Attacks Bacterial Membranes in Dictyostelium discoideum Phagosomes. [PDF]
Mol MicrobiolThis study shows that PldX, a luminal Phospholipase D, is necessary for the efficient destruction of ingested Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria in Dictyostelium discoideum phagosomes. PldX and the AlyL lysozyme together attack the bacterial membrane and permeabilize it. To date, the molecular substrate of PldX remains to be determined. ABSTRACT Phagocytic

A RabGAP regulates life-cycle duration via trimeric G-protein cascades in Dictyostelium discoideum. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: The life-cycle of cellular slime molds comprises chronobiologically regulated processes. During the growth phase, the amoeboid cells proliferate at a definite rate.

TRANSLOCATIONS IN DICTYOSTELIUM DISCOIDEUM [PDF]
Genetics, 1985 ABSTRACT Fourteen translocations of independent origin were identified in Dictyostelium discoideum on the basis of segregation anomalies of diploids heterozygous for these chromosome rearrangements, all of which led to the cosegregation of unlinked markers.

Identification of the protein kinases Pyk3 and Phg2 as regulators of the STATc-mediated response to hyperosmolarity [PDF]
, 2014 Cellular adaptation to changes in environmental osmolarity is crucial for cell survival. In Dictyostelium, STATc is a key regulator of the transcriptional response to hyperosmotic stress. Its phosphorylation and consequent activation is controlled by two
