Function | Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors (Probable). Functions in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway that results in activation of transcription factors of the TCF/LEF family (PubMed:20093360, PubMed:21244856, PubMed:24841207, PubMed:26902720). Required for normal embryonic mesoderm development and formation of caudal somites. Required for normal morphogenesis of the developing neural tube (By similarity). Mediates self-renewal of the stem cells at the bottom on intestinal crypts (in vitro) (PubMed:26902720). |
Cellular Location | Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P27467}. Secreted |
Tissue Location | Moderately expressed in placenta and at low levels in adult lung, spleen, and prostate. |

Background
The WNT gene family consists of structurally related geneswhich encode secreted signaling proteins. These proteins have beenimplicated in oncogenesis and in several developmental processes,including regulation of cell fate and patterning duringembryogenesis. This gene is a member of the WNT gene family. Itencodes a protein which shows 96% amino acid identity to mouseWnt3A protein, and 84% to human WNT3 protein, another WNT geneproduct. This gene is clustered with WNT14 gene, another familymember, in chromosome 1q42 region.
