Products of the highly conserved Wnt gene family play key roles in regulating cellular growth and differentiation.
The prototype member of the Wnt gene family, Wnt-1, is a cysteine-rich secreted glycoprotein that associates with cell membranes and likely functions as a key regulator of cellular adhesion.
beta-catenin, a cadherin-binding cellular adhesion protein which also binds the tumor supressor gene APC, has been identified as a downstream target of a signal transduction pathway mediated by Wnt-1.
Wnt-1 is essential for normal development of the embryonic nervous system and its expression is normally limited to the embryonic neural tube and adult spermatids.
When improperly expressed in mammary tissue, Wnt-1 contributes to hyperplasia and tumorigenic progression.
Wnt family members have been shown to interact with Sonic hedgehog (Shh) in vivo to induce myogenesis in somitic tissue.
