<i>Dictyostelium discoideum</i> amoebae feed by ingesting bacteria, then killing them in phagosomes. Ingestion and killing of different bacteria have been shown to rely on largely different molecular mechanisms. One would thus expect that <i>D. discoideum</i> adapts its ingestion and killing machinery when encountering different bacteria. In this study, we investigated by RNA sequencing if and how <i>D. discoideum</i> amoebae respond to the presence of different bacteria by modifying their gene ...[more]
