(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6425
Official gene symbolSFRP5
Full namesecreted frizzled-related protein 5
Aliases,SARP3,
Gene summarySecreted frizzled-related protein 5 (SFRP5) is a member of the SFRP family that contains a cysteine-rich domain homologous to the putative Wnt-binding site of Frizzled proteins. SFRPs act as soluble modulators of Wnt signaling. SFRP5 and SFRP1 may be involved in determining the polarity of photoreceptor cells in the retina. SFRP5 is highly expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium, and moderately expressed in the pancreas. [provided by RefSeq]
