Wnt10b Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable cytokine activity and frizzled binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chondrocyte differentiation; negative regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis; and protein stabilization. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of cell differentiation; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity; split hand-foot malformation 6; and tooth agenesis. Orthologous to human WNT10B (Wnt family member 10B). [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 Wnt10b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
