WNT5A

The WNT gene family consists of structurally related genes which encode secreted signaling proteins. These proteins have been implicated in oncogenesis and in several developmental processes, including regulation of cell fate and patterning during embryogenesis. This gene encodes a member of the WNT family that signals through both the canonical and non-canonical WNT pathways. This protein is a ligand for the seven transmembrane receptor frizzled-5 and the tyrosine kinase orphan receptor 2. This protein plays an essential role in regulating developmental pathways during embryogenesis. This protein may also play a role in oncogenesis. Mutations in this gene are the cause of autosomal dominant Robinow syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Protein class

Disease related genes, Human disease related genes, Plasma proteins

Predicted location

Secreted

Single cell type specificity

Cell type enhanced (Endometrial stromal cells, Alveolar cells type 1, Basal squamous epithelial cells, Club cells, Oligodendrocyte precursor cells)

Immune cell specificity

Not detected in immune cells

Cell line specificity

Cell line enhanced (BJ, BJ hTERT+, HeLa, SiHa, U-87 MG)

Interaction

Forms a soluble 1:1 complex with AFM; this prevents oligomerization and is required for prolonged biological activity (PubMed:26902720). The complex with AFM may represent the physiological form in body fluids (PubMed:26902720). Homooligomer; disulfide-linked, leading to inactivation (in vitro). Interacts with PORCN. Interacts with WLS (By similarity). Interacts with glypican GCP3 (PubMed:14610063). Interacts with PKD1 (via extracellular domain) (PubMed:27214281).
