Biological function summary
Wnt9b impacts critical cellular events by mediating signaling processes. It interacts with other proteins forming complexes that influence gene expression and cell fate determination. Wnt9b significantly contributes to embryonic development particularly in organogenesis such as kidney and limb formation. Researchers have noted its role in maintaining the balance between proliferation and differentiation in those tissues.
Pathways
Current research has placed Wnt9b within the canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and the non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway. These pathways involve important proteins like β-catenin in the canonical pathway which affects transcriptional regulation. Wnt9b also interacts with Frizzled receptors modulating downstream signaling effects. These pathways are essential in regulating cellular functions such as stem cell pluripotency and cellular differentiation.

General info
Function
Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors (Probable). Functions in the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. Required for normal embryonic kidney development, and for normal development of the urogenital tract, including uterus and part of the oviduct and the upper vagina in females, and epididymis and vas deferens in males. Activates a signaling cascade in the metanephric mesenchyme that induces tubulogenesis. Acts upstream of WNT4 in the signaling pathways that mediate development of kidney tubules and the Muellerian ducts. Plays a role in cranofacial development and is required for normal fusion of the palate during embryonic development (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the Wnt family.
Post-translational modifications
Palmitoleoylation is required for efficient binding to frizzled receptors. Depalmitoleoylation leads to Wnt signaling pathway inhibition.
