Figure 9. Schematic model of canonical Wnt signalling regulation by γ-Pcdh-C3.

Figure 9

Basic ON- (a) and OFF- (b) states of β-catenin-dependent canonical Wnt signalling. See text for details. (c) A model in which γ-Pcdh-C3 competes with Dvl for binding to Axin1; this interaction stabilizes Axin1 at the membrane, and results in reduced phosphorylation of Lrp6 and decreased Wnt signalling. It remains unclear (dashed lines, question marks) whether γ-Pcdh-C3-bound Axin1 can assemble a functional destruction complex, or precisely how β-catenin is regulated by γ-Pcdh-C3.
