Predicted to enable cytokine activity and frizzled binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; negative regulation of chondrocyte differentiation; and positive regulation of smoothened signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; craniocervical region bone; limb; reproductive system; and urethra. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human WNT9A (Wnt family member 9A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
