Protein Wnt-5b is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT5B gene. [5] [6]
The WNT gene family consists of structurally-related genes that 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 is a member of the WNT gene family. It encodes a protein showing 94% and 80% amino acid identity to the mouse Wnt5b protein and the human WNT5A protein, respectively. Alternative splicing of this gene generates two transcript variants. [6]
Proto-oncogene Wnt-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT1 gene.
Frizzled-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FZD5 gene.
Frizzled-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FZD3 gene.
Frizzled-8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FZD8 gene.
Frizzled-10 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FZD10 gene. FZD10 has also been designated as CD350.
Protein Wnt-5a is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT5A gene.
Protein Wnt-3a is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT3A gene.
Protein Wnt-7a is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT7A gene.
Proto-oncogene FRAT1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FRAT1 gene.
Proto-oncogene protein Wnt-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT3 gene.
Protein Wnt-10b is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT10B gene.
Protein Wnt-11 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT11 gene.
Protein Wnt-2b is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT2B gene.
Protein Wnt-9a is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT9A gene.
Protein Wnt-16 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT16 gene. It has been proposed that stimulation of WNT16 expression in nearby normal cells is responsible for the development of chemotherapy-resistance in cancer cells.
Wnt7b is a signaling protein that plays a crucial role for many developmental processes including placental, lung, eye, dendrite, and bone formation along with kidney development. The primary role of Wnt7b is to establish the cortico-medullary axis of epithelial organization.
Protein Wnt-8b is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT8B gene.
Wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 2, also known as WNT2, is a human gene.
Wnt-10a is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT10A gene.
PDZ domain-containing protein GIPC3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GIPC3 gene. GIPC3 is a member of the GIPC gene family that also includes GIPC1 and GIPC2. The encoded protein, GIPC3, features a centrally located PDZ domain, which is flanked on each side by a single GIPC-homology domain.
