R-Spondin2 Is a Secreted Activator of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling and Is Required for Xenopus Myogenesis

We have carried out a small pool expression screen for modulators of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and identified Xenopus R-spondin2 ( Rspo2) as a secreted activator of this cascade. Rspo2 is coexpressed with and positively regulated by Wnt signals and synergizes with Wnts to activate β-catenin. Analyse...
