Cloning and expression of <it>R-Spondin1 </it>in different vertebrates suggests a conserved role in ovarian development

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>R-Spondin1 (Rspo1) is a novel regulator of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway. Loss-of-function mutations in human <it>RSPO1 </it>cause testicular differentiation in 46, XX females, pointing to a role in ovarian develop...
