Description
Product Characteristics: 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. It encodes a protein which shows 94 % and 80 % amino acid identity to the mouse Wnt5b protein and the human WNT5A protein, respectively. Alternative splicing of this gene generates 2 transcript variants.,WNT5B,Epigenetics & Nuclear Signaling,Translation Control,Regulation of eIF4 and p70 S6 Kinase,Signal Transduction,mTOR Signaling Pathway,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway,ESC Pluripotency and Differentiation,Stem Cells,WNT5B
