Abstract excerpt
In Dictyostelium discoideum, growth and development are mutually exclusive and the transition between the two phases of the life cycle is regulated by the environment. This regulation is disturbed in HBW3, a chemically induced mutant with an unknown molecular defect. The mutant develops rapidly and expresses developmental markers during growth. Here we show that HBW3 fails to complement another mutant which has a...
