Upon appropriate signals, it then leaves this complex to allow cellular protein production to be increased. If proper regulation doesn\u2019t happen at this step, it could contribute to problems associated with some cancers and neurological diseases.<\/p>\n<p>This newly found role for \u03b2-catenin is important as it provides a window into a process that was previously unknown and that can potentially lead to the development of novel therapeutic interventions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe next steps are to
