Subcellular localization

basal body, cilia, cytosol, nucleus

Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Protein processing & maturation
  • Cell migration & adhesion
  • Signaling (Hedgehog, GPCRs, ion channels)

Function

Cytoplasmic and nuclear FGF1 immunoreactivity was detected in the epithelium lining the infundibulum, ampulla and isthmus of the oviduct. Immunoreactivity was much stronger in the basal bodies of the cilia on the epithelium lining the infundibulum and ampulla (33772852).

Model organism evidence

Mus musculus (1 reference)

Interestingly, Iqcb1, a ciliogenesis-promoting gene, was found to be upregulated by maslinic acid, leading us to explore the potential link between hair growth and cilia activity.
