PROK1 - prokineticin 1 Gene
Also Known as PK1; PRK1; EGVEGF
Species: Homo sapiens
About PROK1
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 190 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in ovary (RPKM 72.8), testis (RPKM 51.2) and 2 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene induces proliferation, migration, and fenestration (the formation of membrane discontinuities) in capillary endothelial cells derived from endocrine glands. It has little or no effect on a variety of Other endothelial and non-endothelial cell types. Its expression is restricted to the steroidogenic glands (ovary, testis, adrenal, and placenta), is induced by hypoxia, and often complementary to the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), suggesting that these molecules function in a coordinated manner.
