Changes in cyclic AMP levels during development in Myxococcus xanthus.
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.
