Frizzled-5 (FZD5) is also known as FzE5, which belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor Fz/Smo family. Most of frizzled receptors are coupled to the beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway, which leads to the activation of disheveled proteins, inhibition of GSK-3 kinase, nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and activation of Wnt target genes. FZD5 contains one FZ (frizzled) domain. FZD5 may be involved in transduction and intercellular transmission of polarity information during tissue morphogenesis and/or in differentiated tissues. FZD5 interacts specifically with Wnt5A to induce the beta-catenin pathway. FZD5 interacts with GOPC.
