THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF HUMAN PLACENTA GROWTH FACTOR-1 (PLGF-1), AN ANGIOGENIC PROTEIN AT 2.0A RESOLUTION
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 11069911
Function
[PLGF_HUMAN] Growth factor active in angiogenesis and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration. It binds to the receptor FLT1/VEGFR-1. Isoform PlGF-2 binds NRP1/neuropilin-1 and NRP2/neuropilin-2 in a heparin-dependent manner. Also promotes cell tumor growth.[1]
About this Structure
1fzv is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
