VEGF-D Proteins and Enzymes

Vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGF-D) is a homodimeric ligand of VEGF R3/Flt-4 and is synthesized with N- and C-terminal propeptides. Fully processed VEGF-D containing only the VEGF homology domain can additionally bind and activate VEGF R2/KDR/Flk-1. VEGF-D is expressed in adult lung, heart, muscle, and small intestine, and is most ab...
