About Fgf6

Summary

Predicted to enable Fibroblast Growth Factor receptor binding activity and growth factor activity. Acts upstream of or within cartilage condensation and myoblast differentiation. Predicted to be located in sarcolemma. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; limb; and musculature. Orthologous to human FGF6 (Fibroblast Growth Factor 6).
