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.

Retrotransposon Domestication and Control in Dictyostelium discoideum

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.

Profilin isoforms in Dictyostelium discoideum

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2007
Eukaryotic cells contain a large number of actin binding proteins of different functions, locations and concentrations. They bind either to monomeric actin (G-actin) or to actin filaments (F-actin) and thus regulate the dynamic rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton.

Models of Dictyostelium discoideum Aggregation [PDF]

, 1997
Since its discovery in the 1940’s, the life cycle of the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum has attracted the interest of developmental biologists. It involves a relatively simple transition from unicellular to multicellular organization. Briefly, amoebae feed on bacteria in the soil and divide.

Alkaline Phosphatase in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1965
Several phosphatases have been demonstrated in Dictyostelium discoideum. The alkaline phosphatase, pH optimum 9·0, is a 5′-nucleotidase, attacking adenosine monophosphate and deoxyadenosine monophosphate, but catalyses also hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate.

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.

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 ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
