Rapid and efficient genetic engineering of both wild type and axenic strains of Dictyostelium discoideum.

Dictyostelium has a mature technology for molecular-genetic manipulation based around transfection using several different selectable markers, marker re-cycling, homologous recombination and insertional mutagenesis, all supported by a well-annotated genome. However this technology is optimized for m...
