Biochemical differentiation in the slime mold

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1959
When the slime molds begin their multicellular life in the absence of external nutrilites aerobic metabolism is acquired. Closely correlated with an increase in oxygen uptake are striking increases in the activities of a number of “constitutive” enzymes involved in aerobic metabolism.

Slime Mold Lectins

1982
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the slime mold lectins. A lectin is a sugar-binding protein of non-immune origin that agglutinates cells or precipitates glycoconjugates. The assay with which the lectins are identified is the hemagglutination assay.

Slime Mold Cities

Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2012
Inspired by the behavior of slime mold cells, Paul Krugman developed a simple one-dimensional model in which moving firms self-organize into cities. In this paper I show that extending the model into two dimensions significantly improves its realism.

Cellular Slime Molds [PDF]

open access: possible, 1974
The cellular slime molds are designated as the order Acrasiales within the phylum Myxomycophyta. Although several genera and many species have been described, the bulk of current investigations have been carried out with Dictyostelium discoideum. This species has a particularly interesting and well-defined morphogenetic sequence and constructs fruiting

Gravitational response of the slime mold Physarum

Advances in Space Research, 1994
The acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum is used as a model system to investigate the graviresponse of single cells which possess no receptors specialized for the perception of gravity. To obtain insights into the gravity-signal transduction mechanism the light response of the cell is used: Macroplasmodia of the slime mold show clear geo- and ...

Regulation in the cellular slime molds

Developmental Biology, 1965
Abstract Studies of cellular differentiation in the developing cellular slime molds Dictyostelium discoideum (1), D. mucoroides (TYP), and a D. mucoroides mutant (MV) were conducted using fluorescent antisera. These antisera could distinguish between the major cell types, the prestalks and prespores, by their degree of staining.

Graviresponses in fungi and slime molds

Signal Transduction, 2006
AbstractThe analysis of gravisensing in fungi has not yet proceeded as far as in other systems, such as sensory cells for maintenance of equilibrium in crustaceans and vertebrates, Chara rhizoids or plant roots with regard to positive gravitropism.
