Modular mechanism of Wnt signaling inhibition by Wnt inhibitory factor 1

Wnt morphogens control embryonic development and homeostasis in adult tissues. In vertebrates the N-terminal WIF domain (WIF-1 WD) of Wnt inhibitory factor 1 (WIF-1) binds Wnt ligands. Our crystal structure of WIF-1 WD reveals a previously unidentified binding site for phospholipid; two acyl chains...
