Negative regulation of Wingless/Wnt signaling plays an important role in embryonic patterning and is also needed for tumor suppression in adult tissues. New findings in Drosophila reveal a novel mechanism for down-regulating the activity of the Wingless/Wnt pathway.
无翅型/翼状螺旋转录因子(Wingless/Wnt)信号通路的负调控在胚胎模式形成中起重要作用,并且在成体组织的肿瘤抑制中也是必需的。果蝇中的新发现揭示了一种下调无翅型/翼状螺旋转录因子(Wingless/Wnt)信号通路活性的新机制。
