WNT2 Wnt family member 2

Gene ID: 7472, updated on 14-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: IRP; INT1L1

Summary

This gene is a member of the WNT gene family. The WNT gene family consists of structurally related genes which 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. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
