Source: NCBI Gene (ID 7855)
Symbol: FZD5
Full name: frizzled class receptor 5
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: C2orf31; HFZ5
Summary: Members of the 'frizzled' gene family encode 7-transmembrane domain proteins that are receptors for Wnt signaling proteins. The FZD5 protein is believed to be the receptor for the Wnt5A ligand. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
