Neuropilin-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc)

Neuropilin-1 protein is an important receptor critical for cardiovascular system development, angiogenesis, neuronal circuit formation, and non-nervous system organogenesis. It mediates the chemical pulse activity of signaling proteins, recognizes C-terminal regular motifs on ligands, and promotes cellular internalization and vascular leakage. Neuropilin-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant mouse-derived Neuropilin-1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-mFc labeled tag. The total length of Neuropilin-1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is 856 a.a., with molecular weight of ~120 kDa.

Neuropilin-1 Protein serves as a receptor crucial for the development of the cardiovascular system, angiogenesis, the formation of specific neuronal circuits, and organogenesis outside the nervous system. Functioning as a mediator of semaphorins' chemorepulsant activity, it recognizes the C-end rule (CendR) motif R/KXXR/K on its ligands, facilitating cellular internalization and vascular leakage. Neuropilin-1 binds to semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A), the PLGF-2 isoform of PGF, and the VEGF165 isoform of VEGFA and VEGFB. Coexpression with KDR enhances VEGF165 binding to KDR and increases chemotaxis. The protein regulates VEGF-induced angiogenesis and initiates a signaling pathway crucial for motor neuron axon guidance and cell body migration during embryonic development. Additionally, Neuropilin-1 plays a role in regulating mitochondrial iron transport through interaction with ABCB8/MITOSUR. It forms homodimers and heterodimers with NRP2, binds PLXNB1, and interacts with FER, VEGFA, and ABCB8/MITOSUR in mitochondria.
