Wnt family member 5A (WNT5A) is a secreted, proinflammatory protein. It is part of the noncanonical WNT family. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 3p14.3.
Immunogen
WNT5A (AAH64694, 201 a.a. ~ 300 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Wnt family member 5A (WNT5A) has a role in metabolic dysfunction in obesity and negatively modulates angiogenesis in adipose tissue. The protein regulates cell motility and polarity by activating β-catenin–independent pathways. It has been shown to be overexpressed in gliomas.
