Acts upstream of or within several processes, including Wnt signaling pathway; chordate embryonic development; and kidney development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be part of Wnt-Frizzled-LRP5/6 complex. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; epithelium; genitourinary system; heart; and surface ectoderm. Orthologous to human WNT9B (Wnt family member 9B).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
