Reck Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable Wnt-protein binding activity; coreceptor activity; and metalloendopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including blood vessel development; negative regulation of metalloendopeptidase activity; and positive regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within embryo implantation and embryonic forelimb morphogenesis. Predicted to be part of Wnt signalosome. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human RECK (reversion inducing cysteine rich protein with kazal motifs). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 rat Reck often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
