Activation of PLCG1 leads to the production of the cellular signaling molecules diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate.

Kinase activity is dispensable for receptor internalization, which is triggered purely by dimerization/clustering and proceeds through clathrin- and dynamin-dependent endocytosis [#5, #6]. Receptor signaling is further tuned post-translationally: Nedd4-1 binds activated FGFR1 through a non-canonical motif and ubiquitylates it to drive endocytic downregulation [#1], while SUMOylation (reversed by SENP1) restrains kinase activation by modulating dimerization and PTPRG interaction and redirects FRS2α recruitment toward VEGFR2, switching endothelial cells between FGF/FGFR1 and VEGFA/VEGFR2 angiogenic signaling [#7]. Beyond the membrane, an FGF-stimulated, Granzyme B-cleaved fragment of FGFR1 translocates to the nucleus, where it occupies transcription start sites in complex with phosphorylated RNA Pol II and FOXA1 to reprogram transcription and confer endocrine resistance in breast cancer—activity insensitive to FGFR kinase inhibitors [#2, #9]. In oncology FGFR1 acts through an ERK1/2-SOX2 axis to drive EMT and invasion and through PLCγ to confer radioresistance [#8, #15], and FGFR1 amplification supports prostate cancer progression and metastasis [#26]. Developmentally, FGFR1 is required for primitive endoderm specification and exit from pluripotency, telencephalic midline and commissural formation, and cerebellar morphogenesis [#12, #13, #31]. A dominant-negative secreted truncation underlies a Kallmann syndrome FGFR1 mutation that suppresses wild-type receptor ERK signaling [#28].\",\n  \"teleology\": [\n    {\n      \"year\": 2000,\n
