Total binding was measured in the absence of cold fibrinogen and is expressed as a percentage of recombinant FGF-2.

Specific binding = (total binding - nonspecific binding) / (total binding × 100).

A, B, C, and D refer to cassettes in FGF-2.

§

The numbers 1, 2, and 3 refer to areas of site-directed mutagenesis in Figure 2A.

D indicates the deletion of the sequence indicated in Figure 2A, and S indicates substitution of FGF-2 sequence for the corresponding residues in FGF-1.
