Dictyostelium discoideum : a Model System for Cell-Cell Interactions in Development
Abstract
The cellular slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum undergoes a transition from single-celled amoebae to a multicellular organism as a natural part of its life cycle. A method of cell-cell signaling that controls chemotaxis, morphogenesis, and gene expression has developed in this organism, and a detailed understanding of this signaling system provides clues to mechanisms of intercellular communication in the development of metazoans.

“…studied in vertebrate systems, nearly all probably originated in unicellular microbes (Carlile , 1975; Kurjan and Taylor, 1993; Csaba and Müller, 1996) and have been studied in detail for a few protozoan models (Paramecium, Tetrahymena, Dictyostelium [Loomis , 1982; Gall, 1986; Devreotes, 1989]).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
