Abstract excerpt
Wnt receptors of the Frizzled (Fzd) family are widely considered to exhibit substantial functional redundancy, complicating efforts to therapeutically target individual receptors. Fzd2 was believed to be functionally redundant with Fzd1 and Fzd7, based on previously published global knockout mouse studies. By contrast, homozygosity for a Fzd2 global knockout mouse allele developed by the International Mouse...
