Propagation and localization of Wnt signaling.
Cellular mechanisms for the transport and localization of Wnt signaling components are important for the propagation, distribution, and polarization of Wnt signals in embryonic tissues. Wnt signals are distributed through tissues by vesicular transport of Wnt proteins, localized in embryos by directed transport of cytoplasmic Wnt-signaling components, and propagated asymmetrically during cell division.
