G protein-coupled receptor 177 (GPR177), commonly known as Wntless, is a human gene [5] that encodes a receptor for Wnt proteins in Wnt-secreting cells. [6]

Contents

Wntless was shown to be a cargo for the retromer complex. [6] It has been found essential for hair follicle induction. [7]

A homozygous missense mutation in the WLS gene was identified in Zaki syndrome. [8]

LGR5

Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) also known as G-protein coupled receptor 49 (GPR49) or G-protein coupled receptor 67 (GPR67) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LGR5 gene. It is a member of GPCR class A receptor proteins. R-spondin proteins are the biological ligands of LGR5. LGR5 is expressed across a diverse range of tissue such as in the muscle, placenta, spinal cord and brain and particularly as a biomarker of adult stem cells in certain tissues.

SFRP2

Secreted frizzled-related protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SFRP2 gene. This gene encodes a member of the SFRP family that contains a cysteine-rich domain homologous to the putative Wnt-binding site of Frizzled proteins. SFRPs act as soluble modulators of Wnt signaling. Methylation of this gene is a potential marker for the presence of colorectal cancer.
