General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction gene deletion causes embryonic lethality in mice. PORCN null cells cannot activate WNT3A, PORCN null cells do not secrete WNT3A Mus musculus
malfunction mutations in gene PORCN are associated with focal dermal hypoplasia. PORCN null cells are completely incapable of autocrine Wnt signaling Homo sapiens
additional information structure-function analysis, overview Homo sapiens
additional information structure-function analysis, overview Mus musculus
physiological function the enzyme is a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase and is a key non-redundant node for the regulation of global Wnt signaling, essential regulatory role of PORCN in shaping Wnt signaling gradients. All Wnt activity absolutely requires posttranslational modification by the O-acyltransferase PORCN, whose abundance or activity modulates signaling tightly and over a large dynamic range, the enzyme activity is a key modulator of all Wnt ligand activity Homo sapiens
