Fig. 6. A model for Wingless specification of Slouch clusters I and II. An
illustration of the two-step process by which Wg specifies Slouch cI and cII
in the developing mesoderm. Wg provides two contributions for Slouch cII: one
through Twist and a second that is Twist independent. The Twist-independent
Slouch activation is likely to involve transcriptional regulation by the Wg
transcriptional effector Pangolin/Tcf. cI needs Wg only to generate a myogenic
competency domain through Twist.
