Abstract：
:Alterations in cAMP concentrations have been implicated in developmentally regulated gene expression in Dictyostelium. Using a variety of culture conditions to control the metabolism of cAMP during cytodifferentiation, I have examined the role of the cyclic nucleotide in development. Conditions which allow intracellular synthesis of cAMP promote the normal developmental repression of gene M4-1 by a mechanism which is completely independent of the formation of multicellular aggregates. If, however, cells are inhibited in their ability to activate adenylate cyclase and, thus, intracellular cAMP signaling, they prove unable to repress M4-1, even in the presence of exogenous cAMP. In contrast, expression of genes which exhibit maximal activity after aggregate formation depends upon accumulation of extracellular cAMP. Inhibition of intracellular cAMP signaling does not prevent the expression of these genes if cultures are simultaneously exposed to high levels of exogenously added extracellular cAMP. These results indicate that there are at least two independent mechanisms involved in the developmental regulation of gene expression by cAMP in Dictyostelium. I discuss plausible molecular mechanisms through which cAMP might alter gene expression.
