Interaction_summary"We examined expression of 100 of the 104 up-regulated genes by qPCR and found 39 of 100 were reproducibly up-regulated twofold or greater after DNTBAR-1 overexpression in these experiments (data not shown). Of these, 13 were down-regulated 1.7-fold or more in response to expression of dominant negative DNTPOP-1 (class 1; Table 1), whereas nine were not (class 2; Table 1). The remaining BAR-1 responsive genes (17/39) were up-regulated upon both DNTBAR- and DNTPOP-1 overexpression, which is not expected for targets of the WBC or "canonical" Wnt pathway."

RemarkTable 1; "To conditionally activate Wnt signaling, we used hs::DNTbar-1, a transgene that uses the heat shock promoter to express a BAR-1 protein with an amino-terminal deletion (DNTBAR-1) predicted to stabilize the protein in the absence of Wnt signaling (Figure 1A) (Gleason et al. 2002); DNTpop-1 encodes a dominant negative variant of POP-1 in which the amino terminal beta-catenin binding domain is deleted (Korswagen et al. 2000)."
