General annotation (Comments)

Function

Soluble frizzled-related proteins (sFRPS) function as modulators of Wnt signaling through direct interaction with Wnts. They have a role in regulating cell growth and differentiation in specific cell types. SFRP4 may act as a regulator of adult uterine morphology and function. Increases apoptosis during ovulation possibly through modulation of FZ1/FZ4/WNT4 signaling. Has phosphaturic effects by specifically inhibiting sodium-dependent phosphate uptake By similarity.

Subcellular location

Secreted By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed the ovary. Localized to granulosa cells of periovulatory follicles and corpora lutea. Weakly expressed in adult tissues including kidney, brain and lung. Ref.7

Developmental stage

Only weakly expressed in developing embryo except for developing teeth, eye and salivary gland. In the developing eye, from E12.5, expressed in the future neural retina, in both the inner and outer cell layers. In the developing teeth, strong expression detected in the developing incisor teeth at E14.5. Expression localized to the mesenchyme of the dental follicle surrounding the enamel organ only at the early cap stage. Highly expressed in the branching epithelium of the salivary gland. Ref.6

Induction

Induced in ovaries by chorionic gonadotropin (CG). Ref.7

Domain

The FZ domain is involved in binding with Wnt ligands By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the secreted frizzled-related protein (sFRP) family.

Contains 1 FZ (frizzled) domain.

Contains 1 NTR domain.
