Abstract excerpt
Successful development in multicellular eukaryotes requires cell-cell communication and the coordinated spatial and temporal movements of cells. The complex array of networks required to bring eukaryotic development to fruition can be modeled by the development of the simpler prokaryote Myxococcus xanthus. As part of its life cycle, M. xanthus forms multicellular fruiting bodies containing differentiated cells....
