Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | P49765 |
Background | Vascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGFB) is a homodimeric, heparin-binding glycoprotein member of the VEGF family of growth factors. Compared to VEGFA, VEGFB-€™s main role is the maintenance of newly formed blood vessels and is involved in endothelial cell physiology. It is a ligand for vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1) and neuropilin-1 (NRP1), while the binding of neuropilin-1 to VEGFB186 is proteolysis regulated. |

Formulation | Recombinant protein is supplied in 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 50mM NaCl, 10mM Glutathione, 0.25mM DTT, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.1mM PMSF and 25% glycerol. |
Stability | The recombinant protein is stable for up to 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Recombinant Human VEGFB Protein should be stored should be stored at < -70°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Target Details
Target Function | Growth factor for endothelial cells. VEGF-B167 binds heparin and neuropilin-1 whereas the binding to neuropilin-1 of VEGF-B186 is regulated by proteolysis. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted. Note=Secreted but remains associated to cells or to the extracellular matrix unless released by heparin. |
Protein Families | PDGF/VEGF growth factor family |
Database References | |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in all tissues except liver. Highest levels found in heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas. |
