Cell adhesion molecules and intracellular signalling: from fly to man.
Analysis of the wingless pathway in Drosophila and the Wnt pathway in vertebrates has led to a detailed knowledge of the signalling events involved in this morphogenetic system. Molecules involved in cell-cell adhesion and junction formation are implicated at several steps in the pathway, highlighting the high level of interaction between cell adhesive systems and classical signalling pathways.
