Abstract excerpt

To assess the role of myosin II heavy chain (MHC) phosphorylation in basic motility and natural chemotaxis, the Dictyostelium mhcA null mutant mhcA(-), mhcA(-) cells rescued with a myosin II gene that mimics the constitutively unphosphorylated state (3XALA) and mhcA(-) cells rescued with a myosin II gene that mimics the constitutively phosphorylated state (3XASP), were analyzed in buffer and in response to the...
