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. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16597617, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20145243, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8663044}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Secreted. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cell cortex. 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 Cu(2+) ions and S100A13. Secreted in a complex with SYT1 (By similarity). 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. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Predominantly expressed in kidney and brain. Detected at much lower levels in heart and skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11964394, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7504343}.
