Members of this family encode seven-transmembrane domain proteins that are receptors for the Wingless type MMTV integration site family of signaling proteins. Most frizzled receptors are coupled to the beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway. This gene is highly expressed in two human cancer cell lines, indicating that it may play a role in several types of cancer. The crystal structure of the extracellular cysteine-rich domain of a similar mouse protein has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Receptor for Wnt proteins. Component of the Wnt-Fzd- LRP5-LRP6 complex that triggers beta-catenin signaling through inducing aggregation of receptor-ligand complexes into ribosome- sized signalosomes. The beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway leads to the activation of disheveled proteins, inhibition of GSK- 3 kinase, nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and activation of Wnt target genes. A second signaling pathway involving PKC and calcium fluxes has been seen for some family members, but it is not yet clear if it represents a distinct pathway or if it can be integrated in the canonical pathway, as PKC seems to be required for Wnt-mediated inactivation of GSK-3 kinase. Both pathways seem to involve interactions with G-proteins. May be involved in transduction and intercellular transmission of polarity information during tissue morphogenesis and/or in differentiated tissues. Coreceptor along with RYK of Wnt proteins, such as WNT1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11448771}. |Frizzled| |Fz| |Wnt-Frizzled-LRP5/6 complex| |Wnt-activated receptor activity| |Wnt-protein binding| |T cell differentiation in thymus| |positive regulation of JUN kinase activity| |regulation of JUN kinase activity| |PDZ domain binding| |canonical Wnt signaling pathway| |non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway| |T cell differentiation| |positive regulation of JNK cascade| |positive regulation of stress-activated MAPK cascade| |positive regulation of stress-activated protein kinase signaling cascade| |regulation of JNK cascade| |regulation of stress-activated MAPK cascade| |T cell activation| |regulation of stress-activated protein kinase signaling cascade| |lymphocyte differentiation| |positive regulation of MAP kinase activity| |ubiquitin protein ligase binding| |angiogenesis| |leukocyte differentiation| |signaling receptor binding| |positive regulation of protein serine/threonine kinase activity| |regulation of MAP kinase activity| |cell-cell signaling by wnt| |Wnt signaling pathway| |lymphocyte activation| |blood vessel morphogenesis| |cell surface receptor signaling pathway involved in cell-cell signaling| |blood vessel development| |vasculature development| |regulation of protein serine/threonine kinase activity| |cardiovascular system development| |positive regulation of protein kinase activity| |positive regulation of MAPK cascade| |hemopoiesis| |positive regulation of kinase activity| |hematopoietic or lymphoid organ development| |immune system development| |tube morphogenesis| |positive regulation of transferase activity| |G protein-coupled receptor activity| |regulation of cellular response to stress| |regulation of MAPK cascade| |regulation of protein kinase activity| |tube development| |negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |circulatory system development| |regulation of kinase activity| |anatomical structure formation involved in morphogenesis| |leukocyte activation| |regulation of transferase activity| |Golgi apparatus| |neuron differentiation| |positive regulation of protein phosphorylation| |positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |positive regulation of phosphorylation| |cell activation| |cell-cell signaling| |positive regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |positive regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |positive regulation of protein modification process| |negative regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |negative regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway| |negative regulation of RNA metabolic process| |negative regulation of cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of catalytic activity| |negative regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |regulation of protein phosphorylation| |negative regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |regulation of response to stress| |negative regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |generation of neurons| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |negative regulation of biosynthetic process| |regulation of phosphorylation| |positive regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |neurogenesis| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of signal transduction| |positive regulation of protein metabolic process| |negative regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |positive regulation of molecular function| |regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |positive regulation of cell communication| |positive regulation of signaling| |regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |regulation of protein modification process| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp512|Olaparib 4μM R08 exp512]]|-2.08| |[[:results:exp362|GSK-J4 1μM R07 exp362]]|-1.72| |[[:results:exp484|GSK-J5 1.5μM R08 exp484]]|2.23| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
