| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable fibroblast growth factor receptor binding activity and growth factor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of MAPKKK cascade by fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; alimentary system; cerebellum; hemolymphoid system; and musculoskeletal system. Orthologous to human FGF21 (fibroblast growth factor 21). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit decreased circulating glucose levels, oxygen consumption, and gluconeogenesis in fasted mice and increased circulating ketone levels in fed mice.
