Abstract
Normal-sized cells of Dictyostelium build up a front-tail polarity when they respond to a gradient of chemoattractant. To challenge the polarity-generating system, cells are fused to study the chemotactic response of oversized cells that extend multiple fronts toward the source of attractant. An aspect that can be explored in these cells is the relationship of spontaneously generated actin waves to actin reorganization in response to chemoattractant.
