The development of Dictyostelium discoideum may proceed by two pathways, macrocyst or fruiting-body formation, the former being the sexual and the latter the asexual cycle. The pathway of development depends on the presence or absence of zygote giant cells which are produced through fusion of opposite mating-type cells in a population, in heterothallic strains. During the early stages of macrocyst development the patterns of developmentally regulated proteins were noted to differ considerably from those during fruiting-body development. Furthermore, the haploid cells around zygote giant cells synthesized a large number of specific proteins for macrocyst development through the influence of giant cells.
