Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: One function of the Wingless signal cascade is to determine the 'naked' cuticle cell-fate choice instead of the denticled one in Drosophila larvae. Wingless stabilises cytoplasmic Armadillo, which may act in a transcriptional activator complex with the DNA-binding protein T-cell factor (also known as Pangolin). As these components are critical for all Wingless-dependent patterning events, the problem...
