Fgf10 - fibroblast growth factor 10

Predicted to enable heparin binding activity; receptor ligand activity; and type 2 fibroblast growth factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including angiogenesis; response to estradiol; and response to lipopolysaccharide. Acts upstream of or within organ induction. Predicted to be located in cell surface; nucleus; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and extracellular space. Predicted to colocalize with collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Biomarker of hypospadias. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in LADD syndrome and aplasia of lacrimal and salivary glands. Orthologous to human FGF10 (fibroblast growth factor 10).
