<p align="justify">Neuropilin is a transmembrane protein which has been highly conserved through evolution. Two different types of Neuropilin have been discovered in vertebrates: Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and Neuropilin-2 (NRP2). They have 44% of similarity by comparing their amino acid sequences. In the human genome, it is located on the chromosome 10 and their molar weights flucatuate between 120 and 130 kDa. | <p align="justify">Neuropilin is a transmembrane protein which has been highly conserved through evolution.
