Abstract excerpt
The Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway is responsible for the establishment of dorsoventral axis of Xenopus embryos. The recent finding of the F-box/WD40-repeat protein slimb in Drosophila, whose loss-of-function mutation causes ectopic activation of wingless signaling (Jiang, J., Struhl, G., 1998. Nature 391, 493-496), led us to examine the role of its vertebrate homolog betaTrCp in the Wnt/beta-catenin...
