Bacterial expression of human small GTPases induces stochastic predatory responses and motility interference in Physarum polycephalum.

PLoS ONE
We investigated the behavioral responses of the slime mold Physarum polycephalum to Escherichia coli expressing human small GTPases to elucidate how internalized proteins affect its actomyosin-based motility machinery.
