Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 22943
Gene name Dickkopf Wnt signaling pathway inhibitor 1
Gene symbol DKK1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
DKK-1SK
Chromosome 10
Chromosome location 10q21.1
Summary This gene encodes a member of the dickkopf family of proteins. Members of this family are secreted proteins characterized by two cysteine-rich domains that mediate protein-protein interactions. The encoded protein binds to the LRP6 co-receptor and inhibit

Protein name Dickkopf-related protein 1 (Dickkopf-1) (Dkk-1) (hDkk-1) (SK)
Protein function Antagonizes canonical Wnt signaling by inhibiting LRP5/6 interaction with Wnt and by forming a ternary complex with the transmembrane protein KREMEN that promotes internalization of LRP5/6 (PubMed:22000856). DKKs play an important role in verteb
