Abstract

Purified Frazzled proteins, including WG67-16, WG67-19 and WA628, and processes for producing them are disclosed. DNA molecules encoding the Frazzled proteins, including WG67-16, WG67-19 and WA628, are also disclosed. The proteins may be used in modulating the binding of Wnt genes to their receptor. They are useful in the modulation of cellular formation, growth, differentiation, proliferation and/or maintenance of a variety of adult and embryonic tissues and organs.
