Background
The protein encoded by this gene functions to inhibit WNT proteins, which are extracellular signaling molecules that play a role in embryonic development. This protein contains a WNT inhibitory factor (WIF) domain and five epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains, and is thought to be involved in mesoderm segmentation. This gene functions as a tumor suppressor gene, and has been found to be epigenetically silenced in various cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010],
Function
function:Binds to WNT proteins and inhibits their activities. May be involved in mesoderm segmentation.,similarity:Contains 1 WIF domain.,similarity:Contains 5 EGF-like domains.,
