Anti-D. melanogaster wg Polyclonal Antibody

wg

34009

Binds as a ligand to a family of frizzled seven-transmembrane receptors and acts through a cascade of genes on the nucleus. Segment polarity protein. May be a growth factor. Acts on neighboring cells to regulate at least one gene, the homeobox segmentation gene engrailed. Wg signal represses arm phosphorylation. Wg signaling operates by inactivating the sgg repression of engrailed autoactivation. Wg and Wnt2 have a role in the developing trachea and together are responsible for all dorsal trunk formation. Wg also acts in the developing epidermis. Acts as a morphogen, and diffuses long distances despite its lipidation. Lipophorin is required for diffusion, probably by acting as vehicle for its movement, explaining how it can spread over long distances despite its lipidation. In non-neuronal cells, wls directs wg secretion via clathrin-mediated endocytosis and the retromer complex (a conserved protein complex consisting of Vps26 and Vps35) to sustain a wls traffic loop encompassing the Golgi, the cell surface, an endocytic compartment and a retrograde route leading back to the Golgi. In neuronal cells (the larval motorneuron NMJ), wg signal moves across the synapse through the release of wls-containing exosome-like vesicles.
