Biological function summary
Frizzled 6 acts as a receptor in the Wnt signaling pathway which is important in cellular communication and regulation. It does not function alone; it is part of a complex network involving other Frizzled proteins and Wnt ligands that are key for processes such as cell proliferation differentiation and migration. This signaling is important for maintaining proper cellular responses and is integral to developmental processes.
Pathways
Frizzled 6 integrates into the non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway which diverges from the canonical pathway by not involving β-catenin. In this pathway it cooperates with key proteins like Disheveled (DVL) and forms complexes with Wnt ligands to elicit specific cellular responses. This engagement is essential for tailoring responses to external cellular cues especially in processes like tissue polarity and neural tube closure during embryonic development.

General info
Function
Receptor for Wnt proteins. Most of frizzled receptors are coupled to the beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway, which leads to the activation of disheveled proteins, inhibition of GSK-3 kinase, nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and activation of Wnt target genes. A second signaling pathway involving PKC and calcium fluxes has been seen for some family members, but it is not yet clear if it represents a distinct pathway or if it can be integrated in the canonical pathway, as PKC seems to be required for Wnt-mediated inactivation of GSK-3 kinase. Both pathways seem to involve interactions with G-proteins. May be involved in transduction and intercellular transmission of polarity information during tissue morphogenesis and/or in differentiated tissues. Together with FZD3, is involved in the neural tube closure and plays a role in the regulation of the establishment of planar cell polarity (PCP), particularly in the orientation of asymmetric bundles of stereocilia on the apical faces of a subset of auditory and vestibular sensory cells located in the inner ear (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor Fz/Smo family.
Post-translational modifications
Ubiquitinated by ZNRF3, leading to its degradation by the proteasome.
