Chemotaxis to cAMP and slug migration in Dictyostelium both depend on migA, a BTB protein.

Molecular biology of the cell - 1 Sept 1997

Escalante R, Wessels D, Soll D R, Loomis W F

Abstract excerpt

Chemotaxis in natural aggregation territories and in a chamber with an imposed gradient of cyclic AMP (cAMP) was found to be defective in a mutant strain of Dictyostelium discoideum that forms slugs unable to migrate. This strain was selected from a population of cells mutagenized by random inser...
