| Primary Identifier | MGI:1915401 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 68151 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables Wnt-protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including brain development; cementum mineralization; and exocrine pancreas development. Acts upstream of or within Wnt protein secretion. Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; cytoplasmic vesicle; and endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; respiratory system; sensory organ; and skin. Used to study Zaki syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Zaki syndrome. Orthologous to human WLS (Wnt ligand secretion mediator). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for null alleles exhibit impaired body axis and triploblastic development dying prior to E10.5. Mice homozygous for a floxed allele activated in keratinocytes exhibit a psoriasiform dermatitis-like phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
