About WNT8A

Cytogenetic location: 5q31.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:138,077,367-138,092,365 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 275 orthologues and 18 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

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, and may be implicated in development of early embryos as well as germ cell tumors. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
