FGF14 fibroblast growth factor 14

Gene ID: 2259, updated on 16-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: FHF4; NYS4; FHF-4; SCA27; FGF-14; SCA27A; SCA27B

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. A mutation in this gene is associated with autosomal dominant cerebral ataxia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
