FGF6 - fibroblast growth factor 6 Gene
Also Known as HST2; HBGF-6
Species: Homo sapiens
About FGF6
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 269 orthologues and 21 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) family. FGF Family members 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. This gene displayed oncogenic transforming activity when transfected into mammalian cells. The mouse homolog of this gene exhibits a restricted expression profile predominantly in the myogenic lineage, which suggested a role in muscle regeneration or differentiation.
