title: Wingless signaling: an axin to grind.
abstract: Negative regulation of Wingless/Wnt signaling plays an important role in embryonic patterning and is also needed for tumor suppression in adult tissues. New findings in Drosophila reveal a novel mechanism for down-regulating the activity of the Wingless/Wnt pathway.
