Fgf12 - fibroblast growth factor 12

Predicted to enable heparin binding activity; sodium channel regulator activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adult locomotory behavior; neuromuscular process; and positive regulation of sodium ion transport. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; limb; sensory organ; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 47. Orthologous to human FGF12 (fibroblast growth factor 12).
