Stochastic noise and synchronisation during Dictyostelium aggregation make cAMP oscillations robust [PDF]
, 2007 The molecular network, which underlies the oscillations in the concentration of adenosine 3′, 5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) during the aggregation phase of starvation-induced development in Dictyostelium discoideum, achieves remarkable levels of robust ...

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.

Eat Prey, Live: Dictyostelium discoideum As a Model for Cell-Autonomous Defenses
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 The soil-dwelling social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum feeds on bacteria. Each meal is a potential infection because some bacteria have evolved mechanisms to resist predation. To survive such a hostile environment, D.

Role of epigenetics in unicellular to multicellular transition in Dictyostelium
Genome Biology, 2021 Background The evolution of multicellularity is a critical event that remains incompletely understood. We use the social amoeba, Dictyostelium discoideum, one of the rare organisms that readily transits back and forth between both unicellular and ...
