FAMILY

WNT family

CATEGORY

protooncogene , signaling

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	extracellular
text	associated with the extracellular matrix

basic FUNCTION	involved in short-range signaling during embryonic patterning
	playing a key role in carcinogenesis through activation of WNT-beta-catenin-TCF signaling pathway
	ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors
	WNT6, WNT10A and WNT10B inhibit adipogenesis and stimulate osteoblastogenesis through a CTNNB1-dependent mechanism
