Biological Activity
FGF-1 Protein, Rat is the recombinant rat-derived FGF-1 protein, expressed by E. coli, with tag free tag.
The FGF-1 protein plays a pivotal role in regulating important cellular processes such as cell survival, division, angiogenesis, differentiation, and migration. In vitro, it exhibits potent mitogenic properties and acts as a ligand for both FGFR1 and integrins. When heparin is present, FGF-1 binds to FGFR1, resulting in the dimerization and activation of FGFR1 through autophosphorylation on tyrosine residues. These phosphorylated residues serve as docking sites for interacting proteins, initiating various signaling cascades. FGF-1 also binds to integrins and forms a ternary complex with integrins and FGFR1, which is crucial for FGF-1 signaling.
