Protein Wnt-7a

Preferred Label : Protein Wnt-7a;

NCIt synonyms : WNT7A; WNT7A Protein; Proto-Oncogene Wnt7a Protein;

NCIt definition : Protein Wnt-7a (349 aa, 39 kDa) is encoded by the human WNT7A gene. This protein plays a role in intercellular communication and the regulation of cell fate and patterning during embryogenesis.;

NCIt note : Protein Wnt-7a expression is restricted to placenta, kidney, testis, uterus, fetal lung, and fetal and adult brain. WNT7A guides development of the female reproductive tract and controls limb development at the dorsoventral axis. (from OMIM 601570);
