Lithium ions induce prestalk-associated gene expression and inhibit prespore gene expression in Dictyostelium discoideum.
We investigated the effect of Li+ on two types of cyclic AMP-regulated gene expression and on basal and cyclic AMP-stimulated inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) levels. Li+ effectively inhibits cyclic AMP-induced prespore gene expression, half-maximal inhibition occurring at about 2 mM-LiCl. In contrast, Li+ (1-3 mM) promotes the cyclic AMP-induced increase of cysteine proteinase-2 mRNA...
متن کاملA prestalk-cell-specific acid phosphatase in Dictyostelium discoideum.
A simple and reliable method of separating and quantifying acid phosphatase activities in D. discoideum is described, and one of the electrophoretically distinguishable forms of the enzyme is shown to be specific for prestalk cells. Accumulation of this product commences some 2-3 h later in development than the prespore specific enzyme UDP-galactose polysaccharide transferase. This finding is d...
متن کاملCheating by Exploitation of Developmental Prestalk Patterning in Dictyostelium discoideum
The cooperative developmental system of the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is susceptible to exploitation by cheaters-strains that make more than their fair share of spores in chimerae. Laboratory screens in Dictyostelium have shown that the genetic potential for facultative cheating is high, and field surveys have shown that cheaters are abundant in nature, but the cheating mechanisms ...
متن کاملCellular and subcellular distribution of a cAMP-regulated prestalk protein and prespore protein in Dictyostelium discoideum: a study on the ontogeny of prestalk and prespore cells
We have analyzed a developmentally and spatially regulated prestalk-specific gene and a prespore-specific gene from Dictyostelium. The prestalk gene, pst-cathepsin, encodes a protein highly homologous to the lysosomal cysteine proteinases cathepsin H and cathepsin B. The prespore gene encodes a protein with some homology to the anti-bacterial toxin crambin and has been designated beejin. Using ...
متن کاملthe underlying structure of language proficiency and the proficiency level
هدف از انجام این تخقیق بررسی رابطه احتمالی بین سطح مهارت زبان خارجی (foreign language proficiency) و ساختار مهارت زبان خارجی بود. تعداد 314 زبان آموز مونث و مذکر که عمدتا دانشجویان رشته های زبان انگلیسی در سطوح کارشناسی و کارشناسی ارشد بودند در این تحقیق شرکت کردند. از لحاظ سطح مهارت زبان خارجی شرکت کنندگان بسیار با هم متفاوت بودند، (75 نفر سطح پیشرفته، 113 نفر سطح متوسط، 126 سطح مقدماتی). کلا ...
