Evidence for the presence of a growth factor in Dictyostelium discoideum.

Developmental genetics - 1 Jan 1991

Whitbread J A, Sims M, Katz E R

Abstract excerpt

Polypeptide hormones, recognized for their ability to regulate cell growth and differentiation, have been classified as growth factors. These growth factors have been extensively described in higher eukaryotic organisms and cell lines [Hedin and Westermark, Cell 37:9-20, 1984]. Here we report the identification and partial characterization of a putative growth factor present in vegetative amoebae of the cellular...
