  • Title: A Dictyostelium discoideum mutant exhibiting calcium-dependent, high-level detergent resistance.
    Author: Madigan SJ, Whitbread JA, Katz ER.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1990 May; 172(5):2785-7. PubMed ID: 2332407.
    Abstract:
    We report the isolation of a mutant of the cellular slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum that is highly resistant to the lethal action of the nonionic detergent Triton X-100. The resistance is completely dependent on the presence of divalent cations, of which Ca2+ is the most effective.
