Abstract excerpt
Adenomatous polyposis coli protein (APC) is an important tumour suppressor in the human colon epithelium. In a complex with glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), APC binds to and destabilizes cytoplasmic ('free') beta-catenin. Here, using a yeast two-hybrid screen for proteins that bind to the Drosophila beta-catenin homologue, Armadillo, we identify a new Drosophila APC homologue, E-APC. E-APC also binds to...
