Project description:spaA is a Cud-type transcription factor that is essential for spore cell differentiation of Dictyostelium discoideum, a social amoeba. ChIP-seq was performed to identify spaA target genes.
Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of dedifferentiation in Dictyostelium discoideum: comparing wild type and forG- (formin-) mutant cells dedifferentiating in growth medium
Project description:A sequencing-based profiling method (RiboMeth-seq) for ribose methylations was applied to study methylation patterns in Dictyostelium discoideum
Project description:Dictyostelium discoideum is a professional phagocyte and it uses phagocytosis as a way to get food. However, there are a number of bacteria that subvert this professional phagocyte. In this study we investigated whether Salmonella typhimurium is also pathogenic for D. discoideum.
