Description
RSPO1 gene is a member of the R-spondin family. It encodes RSPO1 which is known as a secreted activator protein with two cystein-rich, furin-like domains and one thrombospondin type 1 domain. In mice, RSPO1 induces the rapid onset of crypt cell proliferation and increases intestinal epithelial healing, providing a protective effect against chemotherapy-induced adverse effects. This protein is an activator of the beta-catenin signaling cascade, leading to TCF-dependent gene activation. RSPO1 acts both in the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin-dependent pathway and in non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway, probably by acting as an inhibitor of ZNRF3, an important regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway. It also acts as a ligand for frizzled FZD8 and LRP6.

Molecular weight
The secreted recombinant human RSPO1 comprises 254 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 28.2 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, rhRSPO1 migrates as an approximately 42 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

Activity
1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human RSPO1 at 20 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind human LIMPII with a linear ranger of 32-800 ng/ml.
2. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human RSPO1 at 20 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind mouse CD36 with a linear ranger of 6.4-800 ng/ml.
3. Measured by its ability to induce activation of ßcatenin response in a Topflash Luciferase assay using HEK293T human embryonic kidney cells. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.05-0.5 μg/mL in the presence of 5 ng/mL recombinant mouse Wnt3a. -
