A Serum Response Factor homolog is required for spore differentiation in Dictyostelium.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Oct 1998

Escalante R, Sastre L

Abstract excerpt

A homolog of the Serum Response Factor (SRF) has been isolated from Dictyostelium discoideum and its function studied by analyzing the consequences of its gene disruption. The MADS-box region of Dictyostelium SRF (DdSRF) is highly conserved with those of the human, Drosophila and yeast homologs. srfA is a developmentally regulated gene expressed in prespore and spore cells. This gene plays an essential role in...
