Establishing direction during chemotaxis in eukaryotic cells.

Biophysical journal - 1 Sept 2002

Rappel Wouter-Jan, Thomas Peter J, Levine Herbert, Loomis William F

Abstract excerpt

Several recent studies have demonstrated that eukaryotic cells, including amoeboid cells of Dictyostelium discoideum and neutrophils, respond to chemoattractants by translocation of PH-domain proteins to the cell membrane, where these proteins participate in the modulation of the cytoskeleton and relay of the signal. When the chemoattractant is released from a pipette, the localization is found predominantly on...
