Abstract excerpt
We used random mutagenesis and phenotypic rescue of adenylyl cyclase-null Dictyostelium cells to isolate loss-of-function mutations in the enzyme. Mutants were (i) catalytically inactive or (ii) resistant to chemoattractant receptor and guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate stimulation. Both classe...
