title: Changes in cyclic AMP levels during development in Myxococcus xanthus.
abstract: Cyclic AMP levels doubled in Myxococcus xanthus under conditions in which cells aggregate and form fruiting bodies. In liquid medium, glycerol- or dimethyl sulfoxide-induced sporulating cultures exhibited a sharp but transient rise in cyclic AMP concentration after 45 min.
