The histidine kinase dhkC regulates the choice between migrating slugs and terminal differentiation in Dictyostelium discoideum.

Developmental biology - 15 Nov 1998

Singleton C K, Zinda M J, Mykytka B, Yang P

Abstract excerpt

An early decision that a newly formed aggregate of Dictyostelium cells must make is whether to form a migrating slug or to proceed through culmination, the process of forming the mature fruiting body. The choice between these alternative morphological pathways is influenced by external and internal cues. dhkC was identified as a potential hybrid sensor kinase possessing domains homologous to the histidine kinase...
