| Background | The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor ( FGF ) family. FGF family members bind heparin and possess broad mitogenic and angiogenic activities. This protein has been implicated in diverse biological processes , such as limb and nervous system development , wound healing , and tumor growth. The mRNA for this gene contains multiple polyadenylation sites , and is alternatively translated from non-AUG ( CUG ) and AUG initiation codons , resulting in five different isoforms with distinct properties. The CUG-initiated isoforms are localized in the nucleus and are responsible for the intracrine effect , whereas , the AUG-initiated form is mostly cytosolic and is responsible for the paracrine and autocrine effects of this FGF. |
