FGF-17 is a member of the FGF superfamily of heparin-binding mitogenic molecules characterized by the presence of a core, 120 amino acid (aa) beta-trefoil structure. The mRNA of FGF-17 was found in midgestation of embryo and multiple adult tissues, and is preferentially expressed in specific sites, such as embryonic brain, developing skeleton and arteries.
