Background

Mouse FGF-21 is a 20 kDa, secreted, nonglycosylated polypeptide that is a member of the FGF family. It is synthesized as a 210 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 28 aa signal sequence and a 182 aa mature region. Mature mouse FGF-21 shares 81%, 80%, 79% and 92% aa sequence identity with human, bovine, canine and rat FGF-21, respectively. FGF-21 seems to be produced by the liver and exhibits unique antidiabetogenic effects in fat.
