Summary: Predicted to enable fibroblast growth factor receptor binding activity and growth factor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and skeletal system morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial pouch; cerebellum; embryo mesenchyme; surface ectoderm; and tooth. Orthologous to human FGF4 (fibroblast growth factor 4).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
