Wnt8b - wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 8B

Predicted to enable cytokine activity and frizzled binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of gene expression and positive regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including cochlea; eye; future brain; head mesenchyme; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Hirschsprung's disease. Orthologous to human WNT8B (Wnt family member 8B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
