26-residue peptide composed of alanine and leucine shows a circular dichroism (CD) spectrum characteristic of α-helix at 50°C in 5 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.4. When the peptide solution is cooled gradually to 25°C, and the CD spectra are recorded at different temperatures, the most likely observation will be that

The central player in the “canonical” Wnt intracellular signal transduction pathway is called β-catenin in vertebrates and in Drosophila (the homolog of b-catenin):
