title: A new piece to the unsolved planar cell polarity puzzle.
abstract: Wnt-Frizzled/Planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling is a conserved mechanism establishing cellular orientation across animal species. Many aspects of PCP-signaling regulation remain, however, poorly understood. A new paper establishes a potential link from Wnt5a to asymmetric PCP-factor localization via their phosphorylation.
