Description

Alternate Names:  Transforming protein KS3, HBGF-4, HST-1

Accession Number: P08620
Description:  Fibroblast growth factor 4 (FGF-4) is a secreted growth factor that is predominantly expressed during bone morphogenesis and embryonic limb development.  FGF-4 is an important growth regulator for stem cells, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells.  FGF-4 contains a single N-linked glycosylation signal.  In-vitro studies suggest that unglycosylated FGF-4 is cleaved into 13 kDa and 15 kDa truncated proteins that have greater biological activity than the wild type 19 kDa FGF-4 protein.  Human FGF-4 shares high homology and is cross-reactive with mouse FGF-4.
