Slime mold validates efficiency of Tokyo rail networkKatherine Harmon
these cells can fuse with each other. Slime mold fusion constitutes a defining feature of the lifestyle of slime molds , allowing them to share information once merged27, and even before it, through the layer of mucus deposited during growth...
Dictyostelids, the second largest group of slime molds, have both animal-like (protozoan) and fungus-like characteristics. The vegetative phase consists of single-celled amoeboid forms that live in the soil, where they feed upon bacteria and other microbes, grow, and multiply until the available...
labyrinthulomycetes (slime nets) (now included in stramenopiles) myxomycetes (now included in amoebozoans) Rozellida (previously considered chytrids) Fonticula(a slime mold, formerly considered an acrasiomycete) Nucleariida or Cristidiscoidea (nucleariids, filose amoebae) ...
The Plasmodium of true slime mold, Physarum polycephalum, which shows various oscillatory phenomena, can be regarded as a coupled nonlinear oscillators system. The partial bodies of the Plasmodium are interconnected by microscale tubes, whose dimension can be related to the coupling strength between ...

Taken together, we conclude that the ICA homo-trimer can tolerate at most one copy of Myrf-V679A or Myrf-R695H for the auto-cleavage function. Discussion Myrf is a pleiotropic membrane-bound transcription factor, playing a critical role in diverse organisms ranging from human to slime mold...
the N-terminal domains of DYRK1A and HIPK2 and show that the binding interface is functionally conserved even in a DYRK kinase from slime mold. Furthermore, we show that DCAF7 binds to E1A and acts as an essential adaptor protein that mediates the interaction of DYRK1A and HIPK2 with E1...
