摘要
In Dictyostelium there are multiple prestalk cell types that have a complex pattern of directed cell movement during slug formation and culmination. Three extracellular signals, cyclic AMP, DIE and ammonia, control cell type differentiation. Recently there has been considerable progress in understanding their modes of action and interaction.
