Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Dishevelled (Dsh) is a key component of multiple signaling pathways that are initiated by Wnt secreted ligands and Frizzled receptors during embryonic development. Although Dsh has been detected in a number of cellular compartments, the importance of its subcellular distribution for signaling remains to be determined. RESULTS: We report that Dsh protein accumulates in cell nuclei when Xenopus...
