Following statements are regarding to the wnt signalling.

A. Wnt proteins interact with several cell-surface proteins and activate multiple downstream signal transduction pathways. The principal signaling receptor for Wnt proteins is Frizzled (Fz), which contains seven transmembrane α helices.

B. The palmitate attached to the Wnt protein binds to a specific site on the Fz intracellular domain and stabilizes the Wnt-Fz complex.

C. “canonical” Wnt signaling pathway uses a second transmembrane protein, LRP, that associates with Frizzled in a Wnt signal– dependent manner.

D. In the resting state, two kinases in the complex, casein kinase 1 (CK1) and GSK3, sequentially phosphorylate β-catenin on multiple tyrosine residues.
