    STRUCTURE
    motifs/domains
  • two-transmembrane domains (AAs 44–66 comprise the first transmembrane domain, and AAs 86–108 comprise the second)
  • C-terminal VWV (Val-Trp-Val) motif is sufficient to recognize the Dvl PDZ domain
  • HOMOLOGY
    Homologene
    FAMILY
    CATEGORY regulatory
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • may plays a role in regulating Wnt signaling
  • blocks Wnt signaling, presumably by disrupting the Dvl-Fz interaction in cells
  • conditionally modulates Wnt signaling-related gene expression

    small molecule
    protein
  • interaction between the PDZ domain of Dvl and the C-terminal tail of TMEM88
  • associates with Dvl proteins and regulates Wnt signaling in a context-dependent manner
