Rac1b recruits Dishevelled and β-catenin to Wnt target gene promoters independent of Wnt3A stimulation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We previously reported a functional interaction between aberrant Wnt signaling and Rac1/Rac1b GTPases in tumorigenesis. In this study, we further investigated the mechanistic role of nuclear Rac1b. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) studies, we show that Rac1b resides at the promoters of Wnt target genes, c-Myc and Cyclin D1, in HCT116 cells with aberrant Wnt pathway. In HEK293T cells with intact Wnt signaling, Rac1b is tethered to these same gene promoters independent of Wnt3A stimulation and is further observed to recruit Dishevelled and β-catenin in the absence of Wnt3A stimulation. Our studies suggest a novel transcriptional co-activator role of Rac1b in β-catenin/TCF-mediated transcription.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
