Sequence Info : Full Length of Isoform PlGF-2
Tag Info : Tag-Free
Theoretical MW : 34.6 kDa
Storage Buffer : Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered PBS, pH 7.4, with 0.02 % Tween-20
Endotoxin Level : Less than 1.0 EU/µg as determined by LAL method.-
Biological Activity : The biologically active as determined by its ability to chemoattract human monocytes using a concentration range of 5.0-50 ng/ml.
Storage : Short term: -20°C; Long term: -80°C. Minimize freeze and thaw cycles.
Research Area : Cancer
Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.
Relevance : 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. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21215706}.

Involvement in disease :
Subcellular location : Secreted
Protein Families : PDGF/VEGF growth factor family
Tissue Specificity : While the three isoforms are present in most placental tissues, PlGF-2 is specific to early (8 week) placenta and only PlGF-1 is found in the colon and mammary carcinomas.
