Gene information for DKK3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27122
Official gene symbolDKK3
Full namedickkopf homolog 3 (Xenopus laevis)
Aliases,REIC,RIG,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that is a member of the dickkopf family. The secreted protein contains two cysteine rich regions and is involved in embryonic development through its interactions with the Wnt signaling pathway. The expression of this gene is decreased in a variety of cancer cell lines and it may function as a tumor suppressor gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq]
