Wnt signalling controls abscission dynamics in mouse embryonic stem cells

Snježana Kodba, Beatriz Morales Lasierra, Erika Timmers, Agathe Chaigne

This study shows that Wnt signaling controls abscission dynamics in mouse embryonic stem cells by regulating Aurora B activity and microtubule stability at the intercellular bridge.
