WNT3 Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

WNT3: Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors. Wnt-3 and Wnt-3a play distinct roles in cell-cell signaling during morphogenesis of the developing neural tube. Defects in WNT3 are the cause of autosomal recessive tetra-amelia (ARTTRA). Tetra-amelia is a rare human genetic disorder characterized by complete absence of all four limbs and other anomalies such as craniofacial, nervous system, pulmonary, skeletal and urogenital defects. Belongs to the Wnt family.
