VEGFD - vascular endothelial growth factor D Gene
Also Known as FIGF; VEGF-D
Species: Homo sapiens
About VEGFD
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 191 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Biased expression in lung (RPKM 21.7), fat (RPKM 4.7) and 9 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor/vascular endothelial growth factor (PDGF/VEGF) family and is active in angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, and endothelial cell growth. This secreted protein undergoes a complex proteolytic maturation, generating multiple processed forms which bind and activate VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 receptors. This protein is structurally and functionally similar to vascular endothelial growth factor C. Read-through transcription has been observed between this locus and the upstream PIR (GeneID 8544) locus. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
