Abstract
Two different methods for the localization of Con A indicate that this lectin is bound to the surface of Dictyostelium discoideum amoebae. Redistribution of the Con A receptors occurs both on cells in suspension and cells moving on an agar surface. Internalization of the Con A does not occur.

The heterotrimeric G protein, G2, from the eukaryotic organism Dictyostelium discoideum participates in signal transduction pathways which are essential to Dictyostelium's developmental life cycle. G2 is activated by cell surface cAMP receptors and in turn is required for the activation of a host of
