Background: LRP-6

The low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein 6 (LRP-6), along with LRP-5, constitute a distinct subgroup of the LDL receptor family (1). Both LRP-5 and LRP-6 are type I transmembrane proteins that function as Wnt co-receptors with Frizzled proteins and mediate the down-regulation of GSK-3 activity and the initiation of the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signaling cascade (1, 2). Mouse LRP-6 consists of a 19 amino acid (aa) signal sequence, a 1351 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 23 aa transmembrane domain, and a 20 aa cytoplasmic domain (3). The LRP-6 ECD is composed of four distinct YWTD beta-propeller (BP) motifs followed by three LDLR type A repeats (4). The first two LRP-6 BP motifs bind Wnt-1, -2, -2b, -6, -8a, -9a, -9b, and -10b, while the third and fourth BP motifs bind Wnt-3a (5-10). This product includes the first and second BP motifs of mouse LRP-6 (aa 20-628) that share 98% aa sequence identity with the first two BP motifs of rat and human LRP-6.  Dkk-1, a known antagonist of Wnt signaling, interacts with LRP-6 as a bipartite inhibitor, binding the first and third BP motifs of LRP-6 simultaneously (8, 11). Mice lacking LRP-6 die at birth with a truncation of the axial skeleton, limb defects, microphthalmia, and malformation of the urogenital system (2). Additionally, LRP-6 may be essential for osteoblast differentiation during bone remodeling and, along with LRP-5, is required for postnatal bone development (12, 13).
