Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The differentiation programme of Dictyostelium discoideum is initiated by starvation. Nutrient depletion triggers the differentiation of Dictyostelium cells through the transcriptional inactivation of some growth-phase genes, as well as through the transcriptional activation of essential genes required for the aggregation of the cells. The adenylyl cyclase (ACA) gene, acaA, is one of the earliest...
