WISP1 encodes a member of the WNT1 inducible signaling pathway (WISP) protein subfamily, which belongs to the connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) family.
WNT1 is a member of a family of cysteine-rich, glycosylated signaling proteins that mediate diverse developmental processes.
The CTGF family members are characterized by four conserved cysteine-rich domains: insulin-like growth factor-binding domain, von Willebrand factor type C module, thrombospondin domain and C-terminal cystine knot-like domain.
This gene may be downstream in the WNT1 signaling pathway that is relevant to malignant transformation.
It is expressed at a high level in fibroblast cells, and overexpressed in colon tumors.
The encoded protein binds to decorin and biglycan, two members of a family of small leucine-rich proteoglycans present in the extracellular matrix of connective tissue, and possibly prevents the inhibitory activity of decorin and biglycan in tumor cell proliferation.
It also attenuates p53-mediated apoptosis in response to DNA damage through activation of the Akt kinase.
It is 83% identical to the mouse protein at the amino acid level.
Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.
