The E3 ubiquitin ligases RING finger protein 43 (RNF43) and zinc and RING finger 3 (ZNRF3) have received great attention for their critical role in regulating WNT signalling during adult stem cell homeostasis. By promoting the turnover of WNT receptors, Frizzled and LRP5/6, RNF43 and ZNRF3 ensure that proper levels of WNT activity are maintained in stem cells. The molecular mechanism of RNF43/ZNRF3 activity is beginning to emerge from several recent studies, yet little is known about the regulation of RNF43/ZNRF3 at the post‐translational level. A study in this issue of EMBO Reports identifies the deubiquitinating enzyme USP42 as a key regulator of WNT signalling, which acts by antagonizing the ubiquitin‐dependent clearance of RNF43/ZNRF3 induced by R‐spondins (Giebel et al, 2021). A study in this issue implicates the deubiquitinating enzyme USP42 in Wnt signalling. USP42 stabilizes RNF43/ZNRF3 at the cell surface, resulting in increased turnover of LRP6 and Frizzled and the inhibition of Wnt signalling.
