Canonical Wnt signal transduction pathway

Schematic representation of the canonical Wnt signal transduction pathway. (Left) The destruction complex of Axin, APC, GSK-3β, CK1α, and β-catenin is formed when the Wnt ligands are not present in the cytosol, and β-catenin is phosphorylated by CK1α and GSK-3β. (Right) In the presence of Wnt ligands, the signalling pathway is stimulated by recruiting Dvl and Axin proteins to the cell membrane and binding to the receptors (Fzd) and co-receptors (LRP5/6) consecutively. This process allows for stabilisation of β-catenin in the cytosol and translocation into the nucleus for signal transduction
