Sfrp1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including Wnt-protein binding activity; frizzled binding activity; and heparin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to X-ray; cellular response to estrogen stimulus; and negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; regulation of signal transduction; and reproductive structure development. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; heart; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SFRP1 (secreted frizzled related protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Sfrp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
