- Scientists have discovered a new process involving the Wntless (WLS) protein.
- It is crucial for the development of organs in animals with backbones (vertebrates).
- This discovery helps explain how proteins move inside cells.
- WLS is a protein found in cell membranes and is important for releasing another protein called Wnt3a.
- Wnt3a helps with the signalling that guides the early stages of organism development.
- WLS ensures that proteins go to the right places in the cell, helping organs like the intestines, lungs, inner ear, and eyes develop properly.
