ID:FGF6_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Fibroblast growth factor 6; Short=FGF-6; AltName: Full=Heparin secretory-transforming protein 2; Short=HST-2; Short=HSTF-2; AltName: Full=Heparin-binding growth factor 6; Short=HBGF-6; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation, cell differentiation, angiogenesis and myogenesis, and is required for normal muscle regeneration. SUBUNIT: Interacts with FGFR1, FGFR2 and FGFR4. Affinity between fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors is increased by heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans that function as coreceptors. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted, extracellular space. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Leukemia cell lines with platelet/ megakaryocytic differentiation potential. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=CAA40359.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=CAA40360.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; WEB RESOURCE: Name=NIEHS-SNPs; URL="http://egp.gs.washington.edu/data/fgf6/";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
