OverviewNCBI Gene
Members of the 'frizzled' gene family encode 7-transmembrane domain proteins that are receptors for Wnt signaling proteins. The FZD7 protein contains an N-terminal signal sequence, 10 cysteine residues typical of the cysteine-rich extracellular domain of Fz family members, 7 putative transmembrane domains, and an intracellular C-terminal tail with a PDZ domain-binding motif. FZD7 gene expression may downregulate APC function and enhance beta-catenin-mediated signals in poorly differentiated human esophageal carcinomas. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against FZD7 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads FZD7 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against FZD7 could matter depends on whether native FZD7 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
FZD7 is annotated at the cell surface, where native FZD7 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label FZD7 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
