2015 June 5, Lakshmi Gorrepati et al., “Identification of Wnt Pathway Target Genes Regulating the Division and Differentiation of Larval Seam Cells and Vulval Precursor Cells in Caenorhabditis elegans”, in G3: Genes, volume 5, →DOI:Therefore, we hypothesize that Wnt signaling may be one of several components that maintain lin-1 expression in the VPCs before induction, such that while overexpression of ΔNTBAR-1 upregulates lin-1 expression, reduction of Wnt signaling, such as in a bar-1 ( ga80 ) mutant, does not reduce lin-1 expression enough to cause an overinduction phenotype.
