Conservation, loss, and redeployment of Wnt ligands in protostomes: implications for understanding the evolution of segment formation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The <it>Wnt </it>genes encode secreted glycoprotein ligands that regulate a wide range of developmental processes, including axis elongation and segmentation. There are thirteen subfamilies of <it>Wnt </it>genes in metazoans and this gene diversity appeared early...
