Unraveling Adaptation in Eukaryotic Pathways: Lessons from Protocells [PDF]

, 2013
Eukaryotic adaptation pathways operate within wide-ranging environmental conditions without stimulus saturation. Despite numerous differences in the adaptation mechanisms employed by bacteria and eukaryotes, all require energy consumption.

Developmental decisions in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

Microbiological Reviews, 1994
A few hours after the onset of starvation, amoebae of Dictyostelium discoideum start to form multicellular aggregates by chemotaxis to centers that emit periodic cyclic AMP signals. There are two major developmental decisions: first, the aggregates either construct fruiting bodies directly, in a process known as culmination, or they migrate for a ...

SILAC-based proteomic quantification of chemoattractant-induced cytoskeleton dynamics on a second to minute timescale [PDF]

, 2014
Cytoskeletal dynamics during cell behaviours ranging from endocytosis and exocytosis to cell division and movement is controlled by a complex network of signalling pathways, the full details of which are as yet unresolved.

Patterns of cell movement within the Dictyostelium slug revealed by cell type-specific, surface labeling of living cells [PDF]

, 1994
There are cells acattered in the rear, prespore region of the Dictyostelium slug that share many of the properties of the prestalk cells and that are therefore called anterior-like cells (ALCs).

Origin and evolution of the slime molds (Mycetozoa) [PDF]

, 1997
The Mycetozoa include the cellular (dictyostelid), acellular (myxogastrid), and protostelid slime molds. However, available molecular data are in disagreement on both the monophyly and phylogenetic position of the group.

Mitochondrial potassium channels in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2012
Mitochondria are crucial not only in energy metabolism but also in regulation of cell senescence and apoptosis. The strict control of inner mitochondrial membrane permeability and selective ion transport is essential for mitochondria functioning. Potassium ions homeostasis is an important process for mitochondrial optimal functioning.

Leaps and lulls in the developmental transcriptome of Dictyostelium discoideum

BMC Genomics, 2015
Development of the soil amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is triggered by starvation. When placed on a solid substrate, the starving solitary amoebae cease growth, communicate via extracellular cAMP, aggregate by tens of thousands and develop into ...

Dynamical strategies for obstacle avoidance during Dictyostelium discoideum aggregation: a Multi-agent system model [PDF]

, 2019
Chemotaxis, the movement of an organism in response to chemical stimuli, is a typical feature of many microbiological systems. In particular, the social amoeba \textit{Disctyostelium discoideum} is widely used as a model organism, but it is not still ...
