title: Purification and characterization of a functional soluble fibroblast growth factor receptor 1.
abstract: Naturally encoded human soluble fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 was cloned, abundantly expressed by recombinant baculovirus-infected insect cells and purified to apparent homogeneity. Pure soluble receptor bound as monomeric and dimeric complexes and inhibited the mitogenic activity of basic and acidic fibroblast growth factors.
