The specification of the vertebrate body plan is dependent on numerous signaling molecules, including members of the Wnt family. We have identified two zebrafish wnt8 paralogs related to Xwnt-8B and Xwnt-8, respectively. A RT-PCR assay demonstrated that wnt8 is expressed maternally, with transcripts detected throughout embryogenesis, whereas wnt8b transcripts were first detected during late gastrulation. The wnt8...
