Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is an important tumour suppressor in the intestinal epithelium. Its function in reducing nuclear beta-catenin and T-cell factor (TCF)-mediated transcription is conserved from Drosophila to mammals. But APC proteins are also associated with the plasma membrane. Here, we show that mutational inactivation of Drosophila E-APC causes delocalization of Armadillo (the Drosophila...
