FIBP Lysates

Acidic fibroblast growth factor is mitogenic for a variety of different cell types and acts by stimulating mitogenesisor inducing morphological changes and differentiation. The FIBP protein is an intracellular protein that bindsselectively to acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF). It is postulated that FIBP may be involved in the mitogenicaction of aFGF. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. (provided byRefSeq)
