Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the dickkopf family. The secreted protein contains two cysteine rich regions and is involved in embryonic development through its interactions with the Wnt signaling pathway. It can act as either an agonist

Protein
UniProt ID Q9UBU2
Protein name Dickkopf-related protein 2 (Dickkopf-2) (Dkk-2) (hDkk-2)
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. DKKs play an important role in vertebrate development,
