DEF6 IS REQUIRED FOR CONVERGENT EXTENSION MOVEMENTS DURING ZEBRAFISH GASTRULATION DOWNSTREAM OF WNT5B SIGNALING.

Def6 is required for convergent extension movements during zebrafish gastrulation downstream of Wnt5b signaling.

During gastrulation, convergent extension (CE) cell movements are regulated through the non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway.Wnt signaling results in downstream activation of Rho GTPases that in turn regulate actin cytoskeleton rearrangements essential for co-ordinated CE cell movement.Rho GTPases are bi-molecular switches that are inactive in their
