ZNRF3 promotes Wnt receptor turnover in an R-spondin-sensitive manner

TL;DR: It is shown that the cell-surface transmembrane E3 ubiquitin ligase zinc and ring finger 3 and its homologue ring finger 43 (RNF43) are negative feedback regulators of Wnt signalling, and R-spondin mimics ZNRF3 inhibition by increasing the membrane level of WNT receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNF146 is a poly(ADP-ribose)-directed E3 ligase that regulates axin degradation and Wnt signalling.

TL;DR: Identification of RNF146, a RING-domain E3 ubiquitin ligase, as a PARsylation-directed E3 ligase establishes a molecular paradigm that links tankyrase-dependent poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation to ubiquitylation and degradation of axin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secreted Frizzled-related protein 2 is a procollagen C proteinase enhancer with a role in fibrosis associated with myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: A function for sFRP2 is uncovered and a potential therapeutic application for sfrp2 antagonism in controlling fibrosis in the infarcted heart is found and this reduced level of fibrosis is accompanied by significantly improved cardiac function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recognition of the iso-ADP-ribose moiety in poly(ADP-ribose) by WWE domains suggests a general mechanism for poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation-dependent ubiquitination

TL;DR: The results suggest that protein poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation may be a general mechanism to target proteins for ubiquitination, since many WWE domain-containing proteins are known E3 ubiquitin ligases.
