  Recombinant  Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 13
 Fibroblast Growth Factor Homologous  Factor 2 (FHF2)
 FGF-13 
  FGF13 is a member of the Fibroblast Growth Factor family of proteins. It is one of four FGFs that act as intracellular signaling molecules, independent of FGF receptors. They have instead been shown to interact with voltage-gated ion channels and the MAPK scaffold protein, islet-brain 2. FGF13 is expressed in the developing and adult central nervous system and acts to stabilize microtubules. It is required for axon and leading process development, as well as neuronal migration. It is believed to be a candidate gene for syndromal and nonspecific forms of X-chromosome-linked intellectual disability (XLID).
