CTNNB1 bound to AMER1 is inactive. 1 / 1

"We show that Amer1 binds directly to beta-catenin via a novel interaction motif, the REA repeats. This amino acid motif, including the core sequence arginine, glutamic acid and alanine, and this REA repeats mediate binding of Amer1 to the armadillo repeats of beta-catenin. The data suggest that Amer1 exerts its negative regulatory role in Wnt signaling by acting as a scaffold protein for the beta-catenin destruction complex and promoting stabilization of Axin at the plasma membrane."
