Summary: Enables protein domain specific binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of Wnt signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including axis specification; embryonic morphogenesis; and regulation of extent of cell growth. Located in extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; and sensory organ.

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.
