WNT2 - Wnt family member 2 Gene
Also Known as IRP; INT1L1
Species: Homo sapiens
About WNT2
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 209 orthologues and 18 paralogues. Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 44.0), endometrium (RPKM 14.0) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
This gene is a member of the Wnt gene family. 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. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
