SFRP4 secreted frizzled related protein 4

ENSG00000106483 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

Soluble frizzled-related proteins (sFRPS) function as modulators of Wnt signaling through direct interaction with Wnts. They have a role in regulating cell growth and differentiation in specific cell types (By similarity). SFRP4 plays a role in bone morphogenesis. May also act as a regulator of adult uterine morphology and function. May also increase apoptosis during ovulation possibly through modulation of FZ1/FZ4/WNT4 signaling (By similarity). Has phosphaturic effects by specifically inhibiting sodium-dependent phosphate uptake (PubMed:12952927). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JLS4, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9Z1N6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12952927}.

In 15 of 15 cancers, the evidence for SFRP4 comes mainly from mutations found in tumours

Each row is a cancer, strongest overall evidence first. The two dots show how strong the inherited (germline) and tumour-mutation (somatic) evidence is; the line between them is the gap.

Scores run from 0 (no evidence) to 1 (strongest). A missing dot at 0 means Open Targets holds no evidence of that kind. Source: Open Targets Platform, fetched live.

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.689300000667572 (upper bound 0.9627100229263306). Low values mean loss of function is poorly tolerated, a safety flag for inhibition.
