Research Abstract |
We constructed chimeric receptors in which single-chain Fv of anti-fluorescein(FL) antibody was tethered to transmembrane/cytoplasmic domains of Frizzled8 and LRP6 that are receptors for Wnt3a. Mouse ES cells or iPS cells transduced with these chimeric receptors could activate Wnt3a signaling in response to FL-conjugated BSA(BSA-FL) as a cognate ligand, and could efficiently differentiate into cardiomyocyte when they are stimulated with BSA-FL, in the absence of Wnt3a.
