The mammalian fibroblast growth factor receptor family has 4 members, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and FGFR4. The FGFRs consist of three extracellular immunoglobulin-type domains (D1-D3), a single-span trans-membrane domain and an intracellular split tyrosine kinase domain. FGFs interact with the D2 and D3 domains, with the D3 interactions primarily ...
Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), also known as basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and FGF-β, is a growth factor and signaling protein encoded by the FGF2 gene. [5] [6] It binds to and exerts effects via specific fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) proteins, themselves a family of closely related molecules.
Fibroblast growth factor 18 (FGF-18) is a protein that is encoded by the FGF18 gene in humans. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] The protein was first discovered in 1998, when two newly-identified murine genes Fgf17 and Fgf18 were described and confirmed as being closely related by sequence homology to Fgf8. [ 8 ]
Fibroblast growth factor 12 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FGF12 gene. [5] [6] [7] ... When transfected into mammalian cells, this protein accumulated ...
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a protein which in humans is encoded by the FGF23 gene. [5] FGF23 is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family which participates in phosphate and vitamin D metabolism and regulation. [6] [7]
Fibroblast growth factor 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FGF5 gene.. The majority of FGF family members are glycosaminoglycan binding proteins which possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion.
