Wnt3 - wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 3

Enables protein domain specific binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of Wnt signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including axis specification; embryonic morphogenesis; and generation of neurons. Located in extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in tetraamelia syndrome 1. Orthologous to human WNT3 (Wnt family member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
