Entrez Gene summary for WNT6 Gene:

The WNT gene family consists of structurally related genes which encode secreted signaling proteins. These

proteins have been implicated in oncogenesis and in several developmental processes, including regulation of cell

fate and patterning during embryogenesis. This gene is a member of the WNT gene family. It is overexpressed in

cervical cancer cell line and strongly coexpressed with another family member, WNT10A, in colorectal cancer cell

line. The gene overexpression may play key roles in carcinogenesis. This gene and the WNT10A gene are clustered

in the chromosome 2q35 region. The protein encoded by this gene is 97% identical to the mouse Wnt6 protein at the

amino acid level. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

GeneCards Summary for WNT6 Gene:

WNT6 (wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 6) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with WNT6 include colorectal cancer, and cervical cancer. GO annotations related to this gene include frizzled binding. An important paralog of this gene is WNT5B.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: WNT6_HUMAN, Q9Y6F9

Function: Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors. Probable developmental

protein. May be a signaling molecule which affects the development of discrete regions of tissues. Is likely to

signal over only few cell diameters. Together with CAV1 may promote chemoresistance of gastric cancer cells to

DNA-damaging anthracycline drugs through the activation of the canonical Wnt receptor signaling pathway
