FGF19
geneOn this page
Summary
FGF19 (fibroblast growth factor 19, HGNC:3675) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q13.3, encoding Fibroblast growth factor 19 (O95750). Involved in the suppression of bile acid biosynthesis through down-regulation of CYP7A1 expression, following positive regulation of the JNK and ERK1/2 cascades. In precision oncology, FGF19 Overexpression confers sensitivity to Fisogatinib in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (CIViC Level B); 2 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below.
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 growth factor is a high affinity, heparin dependent ligand for FGFR4. Expression of this gene was detected only in fetal but not adult brain tissue. Synergistic interaction of the chick homolog and Wnt-8c has been shown to be required for initiation of inner ear development.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 15 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
