Sfrp5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable Wnt-protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including Wnt signaling pathway; negative regulation of signal transduction; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act 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 active in extracellular space. Orthologous to human SFRP5 (secreted frizzled related protein 5). [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 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
