The human DVL-3 gene encodes a predicted 716 amino acid protein which exhibits 98% amino acid identity with mouse Dsh-3 and 49% with Drosophila Dsh. Dsh-3 was mapped to 3q27. The expression of Dsh-3 mRNA was detected in 30 human cell lines and 2 primary cell
cultures. Dsh-3 mRNA was detected in normal human breast tissues and tumors. Statistically, there was no difference in Dsh-3 mRNA level between normal breast tissues and tumors. In human colorectal samples, Dsh-3 was expressed equally in matched normal tissues, polyps and tumors. The data indicates that Dsh-3 is widely expressed in human cells and may have a widespread role in signal transduction (1). Results indicate that the human dishevelled genes constitute a multigene family and that Dsh 3 proteins are highly conserved among metazoans.
