Gene Review:
lin-44 - Protein LIN-44
Caenorhabditis elegans
- The C. elegans gene lin-44, which controls the polarity of certain asymmetric cell divisions, encodes a Wnt protein and acts cell nonautonomously. Herman, M.A., Vassilieva, L.L., Horvitz, H.R., Shaw, J.E., Herman, R.K. Cell (1995)
- C. elegans POP-1/TCF functions in a canonical Wnt pathway that controls cell migration and in a noncanonical Wnt pathway that controls cell polarity. Herman, M. Development (2001)
- Multiple redundant Wnt signaling components function in two processes during C. elegans vulval development. Gleason, J.E., Szyleyko, E.A., Eisenmann, D.M. Dev. Biol. (2006)
- tcl-2 encodes a novel protein that acts synergistically with Wnt signaling pathways in C. elegans. Zhao, X., Sawa, H., Herman, M.A. Dev. Biol. (2003)
- Mutations in the Caenorhabditis elegans gene vab-3 reveal distinct roles in fate specification and unequal cytokinesis in an asymmetric cell division. Chamberlin, H.M., Sternberg, P.W. Dev. Biol. (1995)
- Wnt signals and frizzled activity orient anterior-posterior axon outgrowth in C. elegans. Hilliard, M.A., Bargmann, C.I. Dev. Cell (2006)
