products description :
Human FGF19 cDNA predicts a 251 aa precursor protein with a 22 aa signal peptide and a 229 aa secreted mature protein with no potential N-linked glycosylation sites. Among FGF family members, human FGF19 is most closely related to chicken FGF19 and murine FGF15, sharing approximately 61% and 51% aa sequence identity, respectively. Neither the human orthologue of mouse FGF15, nor the mouse counterpart of human FGF19 has been identified. With the exception of adult gall bladder epithelium, FGF19 expression is restricted to fetal tissues. Unlike most FGFs which bind to and activate more than one FGF receptor, FGF19 is a specific ligand for FGF R4. Similarly, another FGF family member, FGF7 (KGF), only activates KGF R, the IIIb isoform of FGF R2. During chick embryogenesis, FGF19 has been shown to act synergistically with Wnt8c to initiate inner ear development.

ncbi 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. This growth factor is a high affinity, heparin dependent ligand for FGFR4. Expression of this gene was detected only in fetal but not adult brain tissue. Synergistic interaction of the chick homolog and Wnt-8c has been shown to be required for initiation of inner ear development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
Function: Involved in the suppression of bile acid biosynthesis through down-regulation of CYP7A1 expression, following positive regulation of the JNK and ERK1/2 cascades. Stimulates glucose uptake in adipocytes. Activity requires the presence of KLB and FGFR4. Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.11. Subunit structure: Interacts with FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. Affinity between fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors is increased by KL, KLB and heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans that function as coreceptors. Interacts with KL; this interaction is direct. Interacts with KLB; this interaction is direct. Interacts with FGFR4 in the presence of heparin, KL or KLB. Ref.2 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.14. Subcellular location: Secreted. Tissue specificity: Expressed in fetal brain, cartilage, retina, and adult gall bladder. Ref.2. Induction: Induced by the bile acids receptor NR1H4 that binds and activates a NR1H4-responsive element within intron 2. Ref.7. Miscellaneous: Contrarily to other members of the family that can bind several FGF receptors FGF19 is specific for FGFR4. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family.
