About Porcn

Chromosome X: 8,060,087-8,072,764 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001013.3

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 268 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 33 phenotypes. Broad expression in cerebellum adult (RPKM 42.), ovary adult (RPKM 21.2) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

Enables Wnt-protein binding activity and palmitoleoyltransferase activity. Involved in Wnt signaling pathway; protein palmitoleylation; and regulation of postsynaptic membrane neurotransmitter receptor levels. Acts upstream of or within canonical Wnt signaling pathway and glycoprotein metabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum and glutamatergic synapse. Is integral component of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Part of AMPA glutamate receptor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior visceral endoderm; eye; genitourinary system; nervous system; and primitive streak. Used to study focal dermal hypoplasia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in focal dermal hypoplasia. Orthologous to human PORCN (Porcupine O-acyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
