Sfrp5 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable Wnt-protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including convergent extension involved in axis elongation; negative regulation of JUN kinase activity; and post-anal tail morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ear; early conceptus; nervous system; and reproductive system. Orthologous to human SFRP5 (secreted frizzled related protein 5).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Sfrp5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • NTR_like
  • Fz domain
  • transmembrane receptor
  • cysteine rich domain
  • CRD_domain cysteine-rich domain, also known as Fz (frizzled) domain
