Swap70b acts downstream of Wnt11 signalling to regulate zebrafish convergence and extension cell movements

During vertebrate gastrulation, convergence and extension (CE) cell movements narrow the body axis medial-laterally (convergence) and extend it anterior-posteriorly (extension). In zebrafish, Wnt11 (silberblick) and Wnt5b (pipetail) mutants exhibited widening and shortening of the body axes characte...
