Fgf23 - fibroblast growth factor 23

Predicted to enable growth factor activity and type 1 fibroblast growth factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hormone stimulus; cellular response to interleukin-6; and cellular response to vitamin D. Located in extracellular space. Biomarker of chronic kidney disease and uremia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. Orthologous to human FGF23 (fibroblast growth factor 23).
