Summary: Predicted to enable Wnt receptor activity and Wnt-protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chondrocyte proliferation; epiboly; and gastrulation. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including margin; mesenchyme; nervous system; neural tube; and pharyngeal arch. Orthologous to human FZD7 (frizzled class receptor 7).

cysteine-rich domain of sFRP2 is sufficient for Ror2 activation, and related sFRPs can substitute for this function. Notably, direct interaction of the two receptors via their cysteine-rich domains also promotes Ror2-mediated papc expression but inhibits Fz7 signaling.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
