| Research Abstract |
Wnts control various cellular functions including proliferation, differentiation, death, migration, and polarity, by activating multiple intracellular signaling cascades including the.β-catenin-dependent and-independent pathways. Dishevelled(Dvl), which has multiple phosphorylation sites, is an essential intracellular component for both pathways. However, the detailed mechanisms and regulations of Wnt signaling cascades through Dvl have still been poorly understood. In this study, I performed siRNA library screenings to identify novel kinases that phosphorylate Dvl.
