The ubiquitin ligase HUWE1 enhances WNT signaling by antagonizing destruction complex-mediated β-catenin degradation and through a mechanism independent of changes in β-catenin abundance.

WNT/β-catenin signaling is mediated by the transcriptional coactivator β-catenin (CTNNB1). CTNNB1 abundance is regulated by phosphorylation and proteasomal degradation, promoted by a destruction complex composed of the scaffold proteins APC and AXIN1 or AXIN2, and the kinases casein kinase 1α (CSNK1...
