Gene information for FIBP (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9158
Official gene symbolFIBP
Full namefibroblast growth factor (acidic) intracellular binding protein
Aliases,FGFIBP,FIBP-1,
Gene summaryAcidic fibroblast growth factor is mitogenic for a variety of different cell types and acts by stimulating mitogenesis or inducing morphological changes and differentiation. The FIBP protein is an intracellular protein that binds selectively to acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF). It is postulated that FIBP may be involved in the mitogenic action of aFGF. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
