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 insertion of plasmids facilitated by introduction of restriction enzyme (a method termed restriction enzyme-mediated...
