It is reported that the simultaneous presence of FGF and the GAG is not an essential requisite for this event to take place, and preincubation with heparin (just before FGF addition) of cells lacking heparan sulfate produced an enhancing effect equivalent to that observed when the G AG and the protein are simultaneously added.
Comparable stabilisation, structural changes and activities can be induced in FGF by a variety of HS and non-GAG analogues: implications for sequence-activity relationships.

Active conformations can readily be found in several heparin derivatives, as well as among non-HS polysaccharides, which comprise unrelated primary sequences, confirming the hypothesis and implying that the level of unique information contained in HS sequences may be much lower than previously thought.

No significant conformational change in bFGF occurred upon heparin oligosaccharide binding, which suggests that heparIn primarily serves to juxtapose components of the FGF signal transduction pathway.

The combination of site-directed mutagenesis and titrating calorimetry permitted an analysis of the energetic contributions of individual bF GF residues in the binding of heparin to bFGF, indicating that pure electrostatic interactions contribute only 30% of the binding free energy as analyzed by polyelectrolyte theory and that more specific nonionic interactions, such as hydrogen bonding and van der Waals packing, contribute the majority of the free energy for this binding reaction.

AFGF appears to bind at high density (one molecule every 4-5 polysaccharide units) and with high affinity to heparin, which potentially provides a concentrated, stabilized storage form of the growth factor that can be released for receptor-mediated cellular activation in response to the proper stimuli.
