Dictyostelium discoideum protocols by Carlo Alberto Redi

“…As well highlighted and stressed by the two editors (Ludwig Eichinger, Center for Biochemistry, Medical Faculty, University of Cologne, Köln, Germany and Francisco Rivero, Center for Cardiovascular and Metabolic research, the Hull York Medical School, University of Hull, UK), Dictyostelium discoideum is an acclaimed member of the so-called model organisms....…”

DNA damage signaling and repair in Dictyostelium discoideum. by Hsu, D, Gaudet, P, Hudson, J, Pears, C, Lakin, N

“…Here we review two recent reports that NHEJ is conserved in the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum. Certain components of the mammalian NHEJ pathway that are absent in genetically tractable organisms such as yeast are present in Dictyostelium and we discuss potential directions for future research, in addition to considering this organism as a genetic model system for the study of NHEJ in vivo.…”

Social conflicts in Dictyostelium discoideum : a matter of scales by Forget, Mathieu, Adiba, Sandrine, De Monte, Silvia

“…The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, where aggregation of genetically heterogeneous cells produces functional collective structures, epitomizes social conflicts associated with multicellular organization. …”

Dictyostelium discoideum: Cellular self-organisation in an excitable medium by Hofer, T, Sherratt, J, Maini, P

“…We study this question in the case of morphogenesis during aggregation of the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum. Here detailed experimental information allows the formulation of a mechanistic model in which the central element is the coupling of the previously muchstudied intracellular cyclic AMP signalling with the chemotactic cell response in cyclic AMP gradients. …”

Investigating DNA double-strand break repair in Dictyostelium discoideum by Couto, C

“…However, their roles in DSB repair remain unclear, and to address this, the eukaryotic model Dictyostelium discoideum has been utilised. Several putative repair PARPs are conserved in the Dictyostelium genome, and the induction of PARylation following DNA SSBs and base-damage has been observed. …”
