Self-organization of chemoattractant waves in Dictyostelium depends on F-actin and cell–substrate adhesion

In the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, travelling waves of extracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) self-organize in cell populations and direct aggregation of individual cells to form multicellular fruiting bodies. In contrast to the large body of studies that addressed how movem...
