MyBioSource.com's FGF3 Polyclonal Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: ELISA, and Immunohistochemistry. The FGF3 Polyclonal Antibody was generated using FGF3, and Fibroblast Growth Factor 3 as the antigen and it reacts with Human, Mouse, and Rat.
Description
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 gene was identified by its similarity with mouse fgf3/int-2, a proto-oncogene activated in virally induced mammary tumors in the mouse. Frequent amplification of this gene has been found in human tumors, which may be important for neoplastic transformation and tumor progression. Studies of the similar genes in mouse and chicken suggested the role in inner ear formation
