Background: Frizzled-6 (FZD6, also known as frizzled homolog 6 in Drosophila) is a seven-transmembrane domain receptor that binds the Wnt ligand and influences macroscopic hair patterning and other tissue polarity events. Frizzled-6 protein contains a signal peptide and a cysteine-rich domain (CRD) in the N-terminal extracellular region, and does not contain a C-terminal PDZ domain-binding motif. Frizzled-3 and frizzled-6 influence neural tube closure and the planar orientation of hair bundles on a subset of auditory and vestibular sensory cells. Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are competent to form tubules in vitro and express the frizzled-6 receptor, which is known to form a complex with Wnt-4 through the CRD in this cell type. Frizzled-6 is expressed as a 4.4 kb mRNA in various human tissues, including adult heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine and colon.
