FGFR2, or Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2, is a protein encoded by the FGFR2 gene. It belongs to the family of fibroblast growth factor receptors, which are critical for various biological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and tissue repair. FGFR2 is a transmembrane receptor with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity, meaning it transduces signals from the extracellular environment to the intracellular milieu, influencing cellular responses.
