About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for VEGFA:
This gene is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family and encodes a protein that is often found as a disulfide
linked homodimer. This protein is a glycosylated mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells and has various
effects, including mediating increased vascular permeability, inducing angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial
cell growth, promoting cell migration, and inhibiting apoptosis. Elevated levels of this protein is linked to POEMS
syndrome, also known as Crow-Fukase syndrome. Mutations in this gene have been associated with proliferative and
nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants, encoding either freely secreted or
cell-associated isoforms, have been characterized. There is also evidence for the use of non-AUG (CUG) translation
initiation sites upstream of, and in-frame with the first AUG, leading to additional isoforms. (provided by RefSeq)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: VEGFA_HUMAN, P15692
Function: Growth factor active in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and endothelial cell growth. Induces endothelial cell
proliferation, promotes cell migration, inhibits apoptosis and induces permeabilization of blood vessels. Binds to the
FLT1/VEGFR1 and KDR/VEGFR2 receptors, heparan sulfate and heparin. NRP1/Neuropilin-1 binds isoforms VEGF-165 and
VEGF-145. Isoform VEGF165B binds to KDR but does not activate downstream signaling pathways, does not activate
angiogenesis and inhibits tumor growth

summary for VEGFA:
Vascular endothelial growth factor is a signaling protein involved in the regulation of angiogenesis and
vasculogenesis. VEGF binds to and activates a receptor tyrosine kinase, VEGFR. Three VEGFR isoforms have
been identified in humans; VEGFR-1 (Flt-1), VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1) and VEGFR-3 (Flt-4). VEGFR-2 mediates the
majority of cellular responses to VEGF. VEGFR-1 is thought to modulate VEGFR-2 signaling or to act as a
dummy/decoy receptor to sequester VEGF away from VEGFR-2.

Recommended Name: Vascular endothelial growth factor A precursor  
Size: 232 amino acids; 27042 Da
Subunit: Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Also found as heterodimer with PGF (By similarity)
Subcellular location: Secreted. Note=VEGF121 is acidic and freely secreted. VEGF165 is more basic, has heparin-binding
properties and, although a signicant proportion remains cell-associated, most is freely secreted. VEGF189 is very
basic, it is cell-associated after secretion and is bound avidly by heparin and the extracellular matrix, although it
may be released as a soluble form by heparin, heparinase or plasmin
Sequence caution: Sequence=AAC63102.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=AAC63143.1; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy;

  • Defects in VEGFA are a cause of susceptibility to microvascular complications of diabetes type 1 (MVCD1)
  • [MIM:603933]. These are pathological conditions that develop in numerous tissues and organs as a consequence of
    diabetes mellitus. They include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy leading to end-stage renal disease, and
    diabetic neuropathy. Diabetic retinopathy remains the major cause of new-onset blindness among diabetic adults. It is
    characterized by vascular permeability and increased tissue ischemia and angiogenesis
