Schematic representation of FGFR splice isoforms. The Ig-III domain of FGFR1–3 is encoded by exons 7–9. Exon 7 encodes Ig-IIIa, which consists of the N-terminal half of the Ig-III loop. The C-terminal half is formed by the IIIb or IIIc sequence, which is generated by the selective inclusion of exons 8 or 9, respectively. Truncation of the Ig-I loop creates FGFRβ isoforms (dotted line), while the full-length receptor is termed FGFRα. Image created with biorender.com.
