epitope corresponding to amino acids 147-346 mapping at the C-terminus of FRP-4 of human origin
Modification Notes
The frizzled gene, originally identified in Drosophila melanogaster, is involved in the development of tissue polarity. The mammalian homolog of frizzled as well as several secreted mammalian frizzled-related proteins, FRP-1 (also designated SARP2), FRP-2 (also designated SARP1), FRP-3, FRP-4 and SARP3 (also designated FRP-5), have been identified. The Frizzled proteins contain seven transmembrane domains, a cysteine-rich domain in the extracellular region and a carboxy terminal Ser/Thr-xxx-Val motif, and they function as receptors for Wnt. The Frizzled-1 gene maps to human chromosome 7q21 and is expressed in adult heart, placenta, lung, kidney, pancreas, prostate and ovary and in fetal lung and kidney. Frizzled-2 is expressed in adult heart and fetal brain, lung and kidney. The frizzled related proteins FRP-1, FRP-2, FRP-3, FRP-4 and SARP3 are secreted proteins that contain regions of homology to the cysteine-rich ligand-binding domain of frizzled and a conserved hydrophilic carboxy terminal. The gene encoding human SARP3 maps to chromosome 4q31.3 and is expressed in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and pancreas, while expression of FRP-1,2 and 4 is high in developing tissues. The FRPs/SARPs are involved in the Wnt signaling pathway by regulating the intracellular levels of b-catenin.
