"Conversely TMEM79-USP8 interaction was unaffected in FZD null cells in which all 10 FZD genes have been deleted ( xref ; xref ), and is thus not mediated by FZDs."

"TMEM79 is associated with USP8 and inhibits its deubiquitination of FZD."

"We therefore investigated TMEM79-USP8 biochemical and functional relationships."

"It seems conceivable that the Tmem79-Usp8 pair may have a primordial function in Wnt/FZD signaling in pre-bilaterians ( xref ; xref ), and that the pair have experienced losses in protostomes related to the loss of Wnt and Wnt antagonist genes."

"Investigations in cnidarians and basal protostomes will help to address the origin of Tmem79-Usp8 specificity in Wnt/FZD signaling."

"We further performed a phylogenic analysis of the Usp8 gene given the Tmem79-Usp8 relationship we uncovered."
