Multiple Wnt Signaling Pathways Converge to Orient the Mitotic Spindle in Early C. elegans Embryos Walston T. et al. Developmental Cell, Vol. 7, 831–841, December, 2004

ABpl The fate of the EMS daughters is controlled by a Wnt/b-cat pathway. The orientation of the EMS division is controlled by a different Wnt pathway involving Wnt(MOM-2), Porcupine(Porc;MOM-1), Fz(MOM-5), GSK-3(GSK-3b) and CK1  (KIN-19). A pathway involving MES-1, a receptor tyrosine kinase, and SRC-1, a Src family tyrosine kinase, acts redundantly with Wnt signaling with respect to the fate of EMS daughters and the orientation of the EMS spindle. mom-1 (Porc), mom-2 (Wnt), mom-5 (Fz), and mom-3 (uncloned), cause spindle alignment defects in the ABar blastomere of the 8-cell embryo. Background

Although many Wnt signaling components have been identified that participate in spindle orientation, the role of the Dsh family has not been clearly characterized. (dsh-1, dsh-2, mig-5) Loss of function of the CKI homolog, kin-19, causes defects in the fate of EMS daughter cells. Although the role of CKI in spindle alignment has not been examined, CKI localizes to centrosomes and mitotic spindles in vertebrate systems. The nontranscriptional Wnt spindle alignment pathway requires contact from the C blastomere to align the spindle of ABar. Wnt/b-catenin pathway regulates the timing of spindle rotation in ABar, presumably by specifying the fate of neighboring blastomeres. We demonstarate...
