Not detected in immune cells

Low cell line specificity

Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Forms phosphorylated oligomer aggregates on Wnt-signaling. Forms a WNT-signaling complex formed of a WNT protein, a FZD protein and LRP5 or LRP6. Interacts (via the extracellular domain) with WNT1; the interaction is enhanced by prior formation of the Wnt/Fzd complex. Interacts (via the beta-propeller regions 3 and 4) with WNT3A. Interacts (via the beta-propeller regions 1 and 2) with WNT9B. Interacts with FZD5; the interaction forms a coreceptor complex for Wnt signaling and is inhibited by DKK1 and DRAXIN. Interacts (via beta propeller region) with DKK1; the interaction inhibits FZD5/LRP6 complex formation. Interacts with DKK2. Interacts with C1orf187/DRAXIN; the interaction inhibits Wnt signaling (By similarity). Interacts (via the phosphorylated PPPSP motifs) with AXIN1; the interaction recruits the AXIN1/GSK3B complex to cell surface LRP6 signalsomes. Interacts with GRB10; the interaction prevents AXIN1 binding, thus negatively regulating the Wnt signaling pathway (By similarity). Interacts (via the extracellular domain) with RSPO1; the interaction activates Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. Interacts (via the extracellular domain) with RSPO3 (via the cysteine rich domain); the interaction activates Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. Interacts (via the beta-propeller regions 1 and 2) with SOST; the interaction competes with DKK1 for binding for inhibiting beta-catenin signaling. Interacts with MESD; the interaction prevents the formation of LRP6 aggregates and targets LRP6 to the plasma membrane (By similarity). Interacts (via the cytoplasmic domain) with CSNKIE; the interaction phosphorylates LRP6, binds AXIN1 and inhibits AXIN1/GSK3B-mediated phosphorylation of beta-catenin. Interacts with MACF1. Interacts with DAB2; the interaction involves LRP6 phosphorylation by CK2 and sequesters LRP6 towards clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Interacts with TMEM198. Interacts with CAPRIN2; the interaction promotes LRP6 phosphorylation at Ser-1490 (PubMed:18762581, 25331957). Found in a complex with CAPRIN2, CCNY and CDK14 during G2/M stage; CAPRIN2 functions as a scaffold for the complex by binding to CCNY via its N terminus and to CDK14 via its C terminus (PubMed:27821587). Interacts with LYPD6 (PubMed:23987510). Forms a ternary complex with DKK1 and KREM1 (PubMed:27524201). Interacts with KREM1 in a DKK1-dependent manner (PubMed:17804805). Interacts with MDK: this interaction is calcium dependent (By similarity). Interacts with LMBR1L (PubMed:31073040).
