Purified Wnt5a protein activates or inhibits beta-catenin-TCF signaling depending on receptor context.
The Wnts comprise a large class of secreted proteins that control essential developmental processes such as embryonic patterning, cell growth, migration, and differentiation. In the most well-understood "canonical" Wnt signaling pathway, Wnt binding to Frizzled receptors induces beta-caten...
