Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Flow cytometry analysis of FZD levels on the cell surface of WT HEK293A, ZRDKO (ZRDKO C1/2), and HEK293A cells stably expressing V5-FZD5/7 with an anti-pan-FZD monoclonal antibody. FZD levels on the cell surface were greater in ZRDKO cells than in WT cells but much lower than those in V5-FZD5/7-expressing cells. ( B ) Cytosolic β-catenin levels were significantly lower in V5-FZD5/7-expressing cells than in ZRDKO cells. ( C ) ZNRF3/RNF43 double knockout-induced DVL phosphorylation and cytosolic β-catenin accumulation depend on endogenous Wnt proteins. WT or ZRDKO cells were treated with or without IWP-2 and analyzed by immunoblotting. ( D ) Overexpressing V5-FZD5 or V5-FZD7 resulted in Wnt-independent DVL phosphorylation. V5-FZD5/7-expressing cells were treated with or without IWP-2, and the WCLs were analyzed by immunoblotting. ( E ) Expression of ZNRF3 or RNF43, but not RNF130 or RNF150, reversed the increase in cytosolic β-catenin levels in ZRDKO cells. ( F ) Overexpression of RNF43 or RNF150 reduced the levels of mature forms of V5-FZD5 or V5-FZD7. WCLs from HEK293A cells expressing V5-FZD5 or V5-FZD7 alone or together with RNF43-HA or RNF150-HA were analyzed by immunoblotting. ( G ) Overexpression of ZNRF3, RNF43, RNF130, or RNF150 in ZRDKO cells reduced FZD levels on the cell surface, as measured by flow cytometry with an anti-pan-FZD antibody. ( H ) Overexpression of ZNRF3, RNF43, RNF130, or RNF150 in ZRDKO cells reduced FZD5/8 levels on the cell surface. IWP-2 partially reversed the reduction in FZD5/8 levels induced by ZNRF3 or RNF43 but not by RNF130 or RNF150. The cells in ( E ) were treated with or without IWP-2 overnight and analyzed by flow cytometry with an anti-FZD5/8 monoclonal antibody. Figure 5—source data 1. Raw unedited blots for .
