Abstract excerpt
The Wnts are a family of secreted glycoproteins involved in cell-cell signalling and pattern formation during development, although the extent to which various Wnts are functionally equivalent remains unclear. We have cloned zebrafish (Danio rerio) wnt4, characterized its expression, and compared its activity relative to other Wnts. The wnt4 transcript is first detected early in somitogenesis, in the dorsocaudal...
