From: The transcription factor Spores Absent A is a PKA dependent inducer of Dictyostelium sporulation

Hierarchy of transcription factors that regulate Dictyostelium sporulation. SrfA upregulates 41 genes required for spore viability and elliptical spore shape, and is itself upregulated by SpaA, which controls >100 spore genes, amongst which 5 are co-regulated with SrfA. BzpF upregulates 15–24 genes that act to prevent precocious germination. All three transcription factors act downstream of PKA.
