Crystal structure of R-spondin 2 in complex with the ectodomains of its receptors LGR5 and ZNRF3☆
The four secreted R-spondin (Rspo1-4) proteins of vertebrates function as stem cell growth factors and potentiate canonical Wnt signalling. Rspo proteins act by cross-linking members of two cell surface receptor families, complexing the stem cell markers LGR4-6 with the Frizzled-specific E3 ubiquiti...
