Cyclic-AMP-Controlled Oscillations in Suspended Dictyostelium Cells: Their Relation to Morphogenetic Cell Interactions

AUTOR(ES)

Gerisch, Günther

RESUMO

Periodic spikes of decreased optical density were recorded in cell suspensions of Dictyostelium discoideum. Spike formation as well as changes in the redox state of cytochrome b are facultatively and independently coupled to an oscillating system which is under developmental control and presumably underlies signal transmission in aggregating cells.
