Wnt gene regulation and function during maxillary palp development in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Developmental Biology, 2020 Wnt genes encode secreted ligands that play many important roles in the development of metazoans. There are thirteen known Wnt gene subfamilies and seven of these are represented in Drosophila melanogaster. While wingless (wg) is the best understood and most widely studied Wnt gene in Drosophila, the functions of many of the other Drosophila Wnt genes ...
