Deskripsi

Wnt/β-catenin signalling directs several developmental processes and is aberrantly activated in several cancers. Here the authors implicate Tankyrase—previously shown to target the scaffolding protein Axin for proteolysis—in early Wnt signalling by promoting the interaction between Axin and the Wnt co-receptor LRP6.
