This gene represents a member of the 'frizzled' gene
family, which encode 7-transmembrane domain proteins that are
receptors for Wnt signaling proteins. The protein encoded by this
family member contains a signal peptide, a cysteine-rich domain in
the N-terminal extracellular region, and seven transmembrane
domains, but unlike other family members, this protein does not
contain a C-terminal PDZ domain-binding motif. This protein
functions as a negative regulator of the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin
signaling cascade, thereby inhibiting the processes that trigger
oncogenic transformation, cell proliferation, and inhibition of
apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript
variants.1) Yerges, L.M., et al. J. Bone Miner. Res. 24(12):2039-2049(2009)
