Summary: Enables Wnt receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including hard palate development; heart morphogenesis; and inner ear development. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; heart and pericardium; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in omodysplasia 2. Orthologous to human FZD2 (frizzled class receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
