Fgf14 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables growth factor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of high voltage-gated calcium channel activity; regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential; and regulation of synaptic vesicle recycling. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia. Orthologous to human FGF14 (fibroblast growth factor 14). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Fgf14 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
