Uniprot Description

Function: Plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, angiogenesis, cell differentiation and cell migration. Functions as potent mitogen in vitro. Ref.11 Ref.12

Subunit structure: Monomer. Homodimer. Interacts with FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. Affinity between fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors is increased by heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans that function as coreceptors. Found in a complex with FGFBP1, FGF1 and FGF2. Interacts with FGFBP1. Part of a Cu2+-dependent multiprotein aggregate containing FGF1, S100A13 and SYT1. Interacts with S100A13. Interacts with FGFBP1

By similarity. Interacts with LRRC59

By similarity. Interacts with CSNKA, CSNKB and FIBP

By similarity. While binding with LRRC59, CSNKA and FIBP seem mutually exclusive, CSNKB and FIBP may cooperatively interact with FGF1

By similarity. Interacts with SYT1. Ref.11

Subcellular location: Secreted. Cytoplasm

By similarity. Cytoplasm › cell cortex

By similarity. Cytoplasm › cytosol. Nucleus. Note: Lacks a cleavable signal sequence. Within the cytoplasm, it is transported to the cell membrane and then secreted by a non-classical pathway that requires Cu2+ ions and S100A13. Secreted in a complex with SYT1. Binding of exogenous FGF1 to FGFR facilitates endocytosis followed by translocation of FGF1 across endosomal membrane into the cytosol. Nuclear import from the cytosol requires the classical nuclear import machinery, involving proteins KPNA1 and KPNB1, as well as LRRC59

By similarity. Ref.11 Ref.12

Post-translational modification: In the nucleus, phosphorylated by PKC/PRKCD

By similarity.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family.

Product Notes

The FGF1 fgf1 (Catalog #AAA650707) is an Active Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Characterized growth factor additive in cell culture media for mesoderm and neuroectoderm-derived cells. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FGF1 fgf1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Fibroblast Growth Factor, Acidic, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
