Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Chaperone specifically assisting the folding of beta-propeller/EGF modules within the family of low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLRs) (PubMed:15014448). Acts as a modulator of the Wnt pathway through chaperoning the coreceptors of the canonical Wnt pathway, LRP5 and LRP6, to the plasma membrane (PubMed:17488095). Essential for specification of embryonic polarity and mesoderm induction. Plays an essential role in neuromuscular junction (NMJ) formation by promoting cell-surface expression of LRP4 (By similarity). May regulate phagocytosis of apoptotic retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9ERE7, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15014448, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17488095}. |
