Researchers showed that restricted chromatin accessibility in intestinal stem cells prevented the expression of β-Catenin-regulated metabolic enzymes, whereas fine-tuning of WNT/β-Catenin activity by ZNRF3 and RNF43 restricted proliferation in chromatin-permissive AXIN2+ hepatocytes, while preserving metabolic function.
