ABC Transporters in Dictyostelium discoideum Development [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters can translocate a broad spectrum of molecules across the cell membrane including physiological cargo and toxins. ABC transporters are known for the role they play in resistance towards anticancer agents in chemotherapy of cancer patients.

Insights Into Aggregation-Delayed Phenotype of Dictyostelium discoideum. [PDF]

Cell Biol Int
ABSTRACT Dictyostelium discoideum is a cellular model that has been widely used in cell signal research focusing on different cellular and developmental processes. The unique lifecycle of these cells—which involves switching between vegetative and development phases—makes Dictyostelium a reliable model for investigations in this field.

Twisted scroll waves organize Dictyostelium mucoroides slugs [PDF]

, 1997
Cellular slime moulds (Dictyosteloids) are characterised by at least two different modes of slug migration. Most species, e.g. Dictyostelium mucoroides, produce a stalk continuously during slug migration, while a few species, e.g.

Modelling cell movement, cell differentiation, cell sorting and proportion regulation in Dictyostelium discoideum aggregations [PDF]

, 2015
Understanding the mechanisms that control tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis is a central goal not only in developmental biology but also has great relevance for our understanding of various diseases, including cancer.

The contractile proteins of dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

Journal of Supramolecular Structure, 1974
AbstractWe have purified actin and my osin‐like proteins from amoebae of Dictyostelium discoideum. These proteins are very similar in their physical and enzymatic properties to muscle actin and myosin. Most importantly, they form thin and thick filaments, respectively, and Dictyostelium actin activates Dictyostelium myosin ATPase activity.

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.

A cytohesin homolog in Dictyostelium amoebae. [PDF]

, 2010
Dictyostelium, an amoeboid motile cell, harbors several paralogous Sec7 genes that encode members of three distinct subfamilies of the Sec7 superfamily of Guanine nucleotide exchange factors.

Quantitative Analysis of Cell Motility and Chemotaxis in Dictyostelium discoideum by Using an Image Processing System and a Novel Chemotaxis Chamber Providing Stationary Chemical Gradients [PDF]

, 1989
An image processing system was programmed to automatically track and digitize the movement of amebae under phase-contrast microscopy. The amebae moved in a novel chemotaxis chamber designed to provide stable linear attractant gradients in a thin agarose ...

Stochastic noise and synchronisation during Dictyostelium aggregation make cAMP oscillations robust [PDF]

, 2007
Stable and robust oscillations in the concentration of adenosine 3′, 5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) are observed during the aggregation phase of starvation-induced development in Dictyostelium discoideum.

The endocytic pathways of Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2019
The formation and processing of vesicles from the cell surface serves many important cellular functions ranging from nutrient acquisition to regulating the turnover of membrane components and signalling. In this article, we summarise the endocytic pathways of the social amoeba Dictyostelium from the clathrin-dependent and independent internalisation of
