PAK7 interacts with β-catenin and GSK3β. A, PAK7 was binding to β-catenin and GSK3β by immunoprecipitation. β-catenin (GFP tagged) was cotransfected with PAK7 (flag tagged) or empty vector into HEK293T cells. Immunoprecipitation was performed with flag antibody and GFP antibody, respectively. β-catenin, GSK3β and PAK7 were analyzed with a GFP antibody, GSK3β antibody, and flag antibody, respectively. B, PAK7 and β-catenin were co-localized in the cell cytoplasm and nucleus. PAK7 (GFP tagged) and pCherry-β-catenin (Cherry tagged) were cotransfected into HEK293T cells. Co-localization (yellow fluorescence) of PAK7 (green fluorescence) and β-catenin (red fluorescence) was detected in the cytoplasm and nucleus. C, Working model for the regulation of β-catenin degradation by PAK7 via phosphorylating GSK3β in Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
