FZD8

This intronless gene is a member of the frizzled gene family. Members of this family encode seven-transmembrane domain proteins that are receptors for the Wingless type MMTV integration site family of signaling proteins. Most frizzled receptors are coupled to the beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway. This gene is highly expressed in two human cancer cell lines, indicating that it may play a role in several types of cancer. The crystal structure of the extracellular cysteine-rich domain of a similar mouse protein has been determined.
Protein class

G-protein coupled receptors, Plasma proteins

Predicted location

Membrane

Single cell type specificity

Cell type enhanced (Muller glia cells, Alveolar cells type 1, Gastric mucus-secreting cells)

Immune cell specificity

Not detected in immune cells

Cell line specificity

Cell line enhanced (hTERT-RPE1, PC-3, U-138 MG, U-251 MG)

Interaction

Component of a Wnt-signaling complex that contains a WNT protein, a FZD protein and LRP5 or LRP6. Interacts directly with LRP5 or LRP6; the interaction is promoted by Wnt-binding and signaling and inhibited by DKK1. Interacts with GPOC, RSPO1 and RSPO3 (By similarity). Interacts with glypican GPC3 (PubMed:24496449).

Molecular function

Developmental protein, G-protein coupled receptor, Receptor, Transducer
