About Wnt6

Summary

Predicted to enable cytokine activity and Frizzled binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial-mesenchymal cell signaling; nephron tubule morphogenesis; and positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process. Located in cell surface and extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; limb; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human WNT6 (Wnt family member 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
