Related Product Information for RSPO2 active protein
The R-Spondin (Rspo) proteins belong to the Rspo family of Wnt modulators. Currently, the family consists of four structurally related secreted ligands (Rspo 1-4), all containing furin-like and thrombospondin structural domains. The Rspo proteins can interact with the Frizzled/LRP6 receptor complex in a manner that causes the stabilization and resulting accumulation of the intracellular signaling protein, beta-catenin. This activity effectively activates and increases the subsequent nuclear signaling of beta-catenin. R-Spondin can also bind to the previously discovered G-protein coupled receptors, LGR-4 and LGR-5. Rspo/beta-catenin signaling can act as an inducer of the transformed phenotype, and can also regulate the proliferation and differentiation of certain stem cell populations.  Recombinant human R-Spondin-2 is a 24.4 kDa protein consisting of 212 amino acid residues.  Due to glycosylation, R-Spondin-2 migrates at an apparent molecular weight of approximately 30.0 kDa by SDS PAGE analysis under reducing conditions.

NCBI Description

R-spondins (RSPOs), such as RSPO2, are secreted proteins that regulate beta-catenin (CTNNB1; MIM 116806) signaling (Kim et al., 2006 [PubMed 16357527]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Uniprot Description

Function: Activator of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway by acting as a ligand for LGR4-6 receptors. Upon binding to LGR4-6 (LGR4, LGR5 or LGR6), LGR4-6 associate with phosphorylated LRP6 and frizzled receptors that are activated by extracellular Wnt receptors, triggering the canonical Wnt signaling pathway to increase expression of target genes. Also regulates the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin-dependent pathway and non-canonical Wnt signaling by acting as an inhibitor of ZNRF3, an important regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway. Probably also acts as a ligand for frizzled and LRP receptors. Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9

Subunit structure: Interacts with WNT1. Binds heparin

By similarity. Interacts with LGR4, LGR5 and LGR6. Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9

Subcellular location: Secreted

By similarity.

Domain: The FU repeat is required for activation and stabilization of beta-catenin

By similarity.

Miscellaneous: Upon injection into mice, it induces rapid onset of crypt cell proliferation involving beta-catenin stabilization. It also displays efficacy in a model of chemotherapy-induced intestinal mucositis (Ref.6).

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the R-spondin family.Contains 1 FU (furin-like) repeat.Contains 1 TSP type-1 domain.

Product Notes

The RSPO2 rspo2 (Catalog #AAA691525) is an Active Protein produced from CHO Cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Human R-Spondin-2 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: ASYVSNPICK GCLSCSKDNG CSRCQQKLFF FLRREGMRQY GECLHS CPSG YYGHRAPDMN RCARCRIENC DSCFSKDFCT KCKVGFYLHR G RCFDECPDG FAPLEETMEC VEGCEVGHWS EWGTCSRNNR TCGFKWG LET RTRQIVKKPV KDTILCPTIA ESRRCKMTMR HCPGGKRTPK AK EKRNKKKK RKLIERAQEQ HSVFLATDRA NQ. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "R-Spondin-2, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
