Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 13544 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables protein-macromolecule adaptor activity. Involved in canonical Wnt signaling pathway and non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within Wnt signaling pathway, planar cell polarity pathway; cochlea morphogenesis; and outflow tract septum morphogenesis. Located in cytoplasm. Part of Wnt signalosome. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; eye; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant Robinow syndrome 3 and lung cancer. Orthologous to human DVL3 (dishevelled segment polarity protein 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit postnatal lethality associated with respiratory distress, persistent truncus arteriosis, and double outlet right ventricle.
