Background
This gene encodes a secreted fibroblast growth factor carrier protein. The encoded protein plays a critical role in cell proliferation, differentiation and migration by binding to fibroblast growth factors and potentiating their biological effects on target cells. The encoded protein may also play a role in tumor growth as an angiogenic switch molecule, and expression of this gene has been associated with several types of cancer including pancreatic and colorectal adenocarcinoma. A pseudogene of this gene is also located on the short arm of chromosome 4. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011],
Function
function:Acts as a carrier protein that release fibroblast-binding factors (FGFs) from the extracellular matrix (EM) storage and thus enhance the mitogenic activity of FGFs. Enhances FGF2 signaling during tissue repair, angiogenesis and in tumor growth.,induction:Up-regulated in epithelial cells after skin injury. Keratinocyte mitogens.,miscellaneous:Expression is significantly up-regulated in carcinogen-induced skin tumors, various squamous cell carcinomas, some colon cancer cell lines and tumors.,similarity:Belongs to the fibroblast growth factor-binding protein family.,subcellular location:Extracellular and plasma membrane-associated. Colocalizes with HSPG2 in the pericellular environment of squamous cell carcinomas.,subunit:Found in a complex with FGFBP1, FGF1 and FGF2. Interacts with FGF1, FGF2, FGF7, FGF10, FGF22 and HSPG2.,tissue specificity:Expressed in the suprabasal region of t
