Entry term(s) familia wingless-type de sitios de integración del MMTV, miembro 5a
proteína Wnt-5a
Scope note: Proteína Wnt y ligando para RECEPTORES FRIZZLED que puede actuar como inhibidor o activador de la VÍA DE SEÑALIZACIÓN WNT. Por ejemplo, activa la señalización en presencia de Frizzled-4 pero es inhibidora cuando se acopla con la TIROSINA CINASA ROR2. Es esencial para la formación del eje durante la EMBRIOGÉNESIS e inhibe la proliferación, migración e invasividad de las células cancerosas.

Scope note: A Wnt protein and ligand for FRIZZLED RECEPTORS that may function as an inhibitor or activator of the WNT SIGNALING PATHWAY. For example, it activates signaling in the presence of Frizzled-4 but is inhibitory when coupled with ROR2 TYROSINE KINASE. It is required for axis formation during EMBRYOGENESIS and inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasiveness of cancer cells.
