Cryo-EM structure of human Wntless in complex with Wnt3a

The transmembrane protein Wntless (WLS) is essential for the secretion of Wnt proteins, which are signaling molecules of the Wnt signaling pathways. Here, the authors present the 2.2 Å cryo-EM structure of human WLS in complex with Wnt3a and discuss mechanistic implications for the palmitoleoylation...

Sumario:The transmembrane protein Wntless (WLS) is essential for the secretion of Wnt proteins, which are signaling molecules of the Wnt signaling pathways. Here, the authors present the 2.2 Å cryo-EM structure of human WLS in complex with Wnt3a and discuss mechanistic implications for the palmitoleoylation of Wnt3a that is required for WLS mediated Wnt secretion.
