Tissue specificity: Highly expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and pancreas. Weak expression in heart, liver and muscle [IMAGE] Pathway & Disease-focused RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays including SFRP5: Leukemia in human mouse rat WNT Signaling Pathway in human mouse r
Function: UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary: SFRP5_HUMAN, Q5T4F7 Function: Soluble frizzled-related proteins (sFRPS) function as modulators of Wnt signaling through direct interaction with Wnts. They have a role in regulating cell growth and differentiation in specific cell types. SFRP5 may be involved in determining the polarity of photoreceptor, and perhaps, other cells in the retina
Similarity: Belongs to the secreted frizzled-related protein (sFRP) family Contains 1 FZ (frizzled) domain Contains 1 NTR domain [IMAGE]
