NCIt synonyms : Wingless-Type MMTV Integration Site Family, Member 16b; Wingless-Type MMTV Integration Site Family, Member 16;
NCIt definition : Protein Wnt-16 (365 aa, 41 kDa) is encoded by the human WNT16 gene. This protein
is involved in ligand-dependent signaling.;
NCIt note : At least 2 isoforms of protein Wnt-16 have been observed that are proposed to be the
products of separate promoters. Isoform Wnt-16b is the canonical amino acid sequence.
Isoform Wnt-16b is expressed in peripheral lymphoid organs. Isoform Wnt-16a is expressed
at significant levels only in the pancreas. (EntrezGene and UniProt);
