Summary: Enables Wnt receptor activity; Wnt-protein binding activity; and cytokine binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of neuron projection arborization; and vasculature development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; regulation of signal transduction; and vasculature development. Located in cell-cell junction; dendrite; and plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study Norrie disease and exudative vitreoretinopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in exudative vitreoretinopathy 1. Orthologous to human FZD4 (frizzled class receptor 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
