Partitioning of the response to cAMP via two specific Ras proteins during Dictyostelium discoideum development

Following starvation, Dictyostelium discoideum cells aggregate, a response that requires chemotaxis to cyclic AMP (cAMP) and the relay of the cAMP signal by the activation of adenylyl cyclase (ACA). Insertional inactivation of the rasG gene resulted in delayed aggregation and a partial inhibition o...
