    basic FUNCTION
  • exhibiting characteristics of a WNT receptor
  • involved in signal transduction
  • may be involved in transduction and intercellular transmission of polarity information during tissue morphogenesis and/or in differentiated tissues
  • involved in carcinogenesis through activation of the beta-catenin - TCF signaling pathway synergistically with some class of WNTs
  • has a distinct role from other FZDs in canonical Wnt signal transduction
  • its transactivation causes the activation of the non-canonical Dvl-Rac1-JNK pathway and plays critical roles in the development/progression of synovial sarcomas (
  • potentially mediating WNT1 signalling to determine sensory neural differentiation
