Predict the consequences of a temperature-sensitive mutation in which phosphorylation of the β-catenin protein is blocked. Above the permissive temperature:

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling
  1. β-catenin levels will increase and β-catenin will be constitutively active.

  2. β-catenin levels will increase and β-catenin will be inactive.

  3. β-catenin levels will decrease

  4. β-catenin will remain constant but cells will be unresponsive to Wnt signaling.
