ABSTRACT
The eukaryote Dictyostelium discoideum is an attractive model organism for the study of cytoskeletal proteins and cell motility. The appearance and behavior of this cell closely resembles that of mammalian cells, but unlike mammalian cells, Dictyostelium offers the opportunity specifically to alter the cell physiology by molecular genetic approaches.
