  • Isolated nucleic acid encoding a newt acidic fibroblast growth factor (AFGF)
    Patent number: 5750365
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel newt aFGF cDNA and sequence, newt FGFR1 cDNA and sequence, newt FGFR2 cDNA and sequence, newt FGFR3 cDNA and sequence, newt KGFR cDNA and sequence, and CHO-KL cell line (KPTr2-2) expressing newt KGFR. Mutant cell lines (Tr31-5-1 and Tr33-1-2) that become non-responsive to aFGF stimulation are used to differentiate biological activities among different forms of aFGF and other FGF proteins. These novel sequences and cell lines substantially enhance the availability of newt acidic fibroblast growth factor and are useful for producing compositions for promoting growth and/or wound healing.
