Haploid strains of Dictyostelium discoideum carrying radiation-sensitive mutations in both the radA and radC genes are more sensitive to UV light irradiation than the "additive" sensitivity of the single-mutant haploids. This synergistic interaction indicates that the radA and radC gene products are
## Abstract To find mutants of Dictyostelium discoideum that are unable to respond to exogenous cAMP signals (frigid mutants), amoebae of 218 independent aggregationβdeficient mutants were treated in suspension with artificial pulses of cAMP and screened for the capacity to form EDTAβresistant cohe
