Entrez Gene summary for MFRP Gene:

This gene encodes a member of the frizzled-related protein family. The encoded protein plays an important role in

eye development and mutations in this gene have been associated with nanophthalmos, posterior microphthalmia,

retinitis pigmentosa, foveoschisis, and optic disc drusen. The protein is encoded by a bicistronic transcript

which also encodes C1q and tumor necrosis factor related protein 5 (C1QTNF5). (provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013)

GeneCards Summary for MFRP Gene:

MFRP (membrane frizzled-related protein) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with MFRP include microphthalmia, and optic disk drusen. GO annotations related to this gene include molecular_function. An important paralog of this gene is TLL2.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: MFRP_HUMAN, Q9BY79

Function: May play a role in eye development
