Lgr4/5/6 family members reside in Frizzled-Lrp complexes and mediate signaling by the Wnt agonist Rspondin1


ABSTRACT: The adult stem cell marker Lgr5 and its close relative Lgr4 are often co-expressed in Wnt-driven proliferative compartments. Conditional deletion of the two genes in the gut impairs expression of Wnt target genes and results in rapid demise of intestinal crypts, thus phenocopying the effects of Wnt pathway inhibition. By mass-spectrometry, we find that Lgr4 and Lgr5 associate with the endogenous Wnt co-receptors Frizzled-5/7 and Lrp5/6 in HEK293 cells and in colorectal cancer cells. We also find that soluble Rspondin1, a Wnt pathway agonist, specifically binds to endogenous Lgr4 on HEK293 cells. In these cells, soluble Rspondin1 potently enhances canonical Wnt signals initiated by Wnt3A. Removal of Lgr4 does not affect Wnt3A-induced signals, but abrogates the Rspondin1-mediated enhancement of these signals, a phenomenon rescued by re-expression of Lgr4, -5 or -6. Rspondin1 and can be rescued by Wnt pathway activation. Lgr4/5/6 are facultative Wnt receptor components that mediate Wnt signal enhancement by soluble Rspondin proteins.
