    A β-catenin-driven switch in TCF/LEF transcription factor binding to DNA target sites promotes commitment of mammalian nephron progenitor cells

    Qiuyu Guo, Albert Kim ... Andrew P McMahon
    β-Catenin-mediated expansion of nephron progenitors is independent of direct β-catenin/chromatin engagement, while progenitor induction proceeds with a β-catenin-driven switch of repressive TCFL1/TCFL2 to activating TCF7/LEF1 factors on transcriptionally poised enhancers.

    TBX3 acts as tissue-specific component of the Wnt/β-catenin transcriptional complex

    Dario Zimmerli, Costanza Borrelli ... Claudio Cantù
    The developmental transcription factor TBX3 co-operates with β-catenin co-factors to operate tissue-specific transcriptional outputs, during forelimb development and colorectal cancer progression.

    β-catenin and γ-catenin are dispensable for T lymphocytes and AML leukemic stem cells

    Xin Zhao, Peng Shao ... Hai-Hui Xue
    The generation and characterization of true β-catenin null mutant mice conclusively demonstrate that β-catenin is dispensable for T lymphocytes and leukemia stem cells, providing clarifications on a long-standing controversy.

    An ancient Pygo-dependent Wnt enhanceosome integrated by Chip/LDB-SSDP

    Marc Fiedler, Michael Graeb ... Mariann Bienz
    The Chip/LDB-SSDP complex integrates multiple signals to render TCF/LEF enhancers Wnt responsive.

    Kap-β2/Transportin mediates β-catenin nuclear transport in Wnt signaling

    Woong Y Hwang, Valentyna Kostiuk ... Mustafa K Khokha
    β-catenin, a key effector of the Wnt signaling pathway, is transported into the nucleus via a direct interaction between its PY-NLS and TNPO1 offering new potential targets for cancer therapeutics.

    Developmentally regulated Tcf7l2 splice variants mediate transcriptional repressor functions during eye formation

    Rodrigo M Young, Kenneth B Ewan ... Stephen W Wilson
    The inclusion of a new alternatively spliced exon in Tcf7l2 can switch its function to repress transcription of Wnt target genes.

    TFAP2 transcription factors are regulators of lipid droplet biogenesis

    Cameron C Scott, Stefania Vossio ... Jean Gruenberg
    The biogenesis of lipid droplets induced by Wnt3a is controlled by the transcription factor TFAP2, which presumably acts as a 'master' regulator of lipid droplet biogenesis.

    Discovery and functional assessment of a novel adipocyte population driven by intracellular Wnt/β-catenin signaling in mammals

    Zhi Liu, Tian Chen ... YiPing Chen
    A novel population of adipocytes that play essential roles in adaptive thermogenesis via cell autonomous and non-autonomous effects and regulate systemic glucose metabolism in mice.

    Cytoplasmic NOTCH and membrane-derived β-catenin link cell fate choice to epithelial-mesenchymal transition during myogenesis

    Daniel Sieiro, Anne C Rios ... Christophe Marcelle
    In chick skeletal muscle, an incoming signal leads to two interdependent outcomes: a cell fate change and an epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
