Function |
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that acts as a negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway by mediating the ubiquitination, endocytosis and subsequent degradation of Wnt receptor complex components Frizzled. Acts on both canonical and non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Acts as a tumor suppressor in the intestinal stem cell zone by inhibiting the Wnt signaling pathway, thereby resticting the size of the intestinal stem cell zone. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18313049, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22575959, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22895187}.

Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Nucleus envelope. Note=According to a report, may be secreted. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15492824}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in fetal kidney, fetal lung, in colon cancer tissues, hepatocellular carcinomas and lung adenocarcinomas. Overexpressed in colorectal cancer cell lines. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15492824, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18313049}.
