Summary: This gene is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family. It encodes a heparin-binding protein, which exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer. This growth factor induces proliferation and migration of vascular endothelial cells, and is essential for both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Disruption of this gene in mice resulted in abnormal embryonic blood vessel formation. This gene is upregulated in many known tumors and its expression is correlated with tumor stage and progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. There is also evidence for alternative translation initiation from upstream non-AUG (CUG) codons resulting in additional isoforms. A recent study showed that a C-terminally extended isoform is produced by use of an alternative in-frame translation termination codon via a stop codon readthrough mechanism, and that this isoform is antiangiogenic. Expression of some isoforms derived from the AUG start codon is regulated by a small upstream open reading frame, which is located within an internal ribosome entry site.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (6) differs in the 5' UTR and 5' coding region and also lacks two consecutive in-frame, internal coding exons, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (6) has a distinct and shorter N-terminus and also lacks an internal segment, compared to isoform 1. This variant has transcript support, but the protein is predicted.

See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001273985.1

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (1) represents the longest transcript. This variant can initiate translation from a non-AUG (CUG) site and also from a downstream, in-frame AUG. The isoform (7) represented in this RefSeq is translated from the AUG start codon and is shorter at the N-terminus, compared to isoform 1.

See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001273986.1

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (2) lacks an internal, in-frame coding exon compared to variant 1. It can initiate translation from a non-AUG (CUG) codon, and also from an in-frame, downstream AUG start codon. The isoform (Vegf-A) represented in this RefSeq is derived from the AUG start codon. It has a shorter N-terminus and lacks an internal protein segment compared to isoform 1. This variant also encodes a C-terminally extended isoform (Vegf-Ax), which results from the use of an alternative in-frame, downstream translation termination codon (UAA). Isoform Vegf-Ax is represented in NM_001317041.1.

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (2) is identical to NM_001287057.1; however, it uses an alternative in-frame, downstream translation termination codon (UAA), which results in a longer, C-terminally extended isoform (Vegf-Ax) compared to isoform Vegf-A. Unlike isoform Vegf-A, which is proangiogenic, Vegf-Ax exhibits antiangiogenic activity. As the upstream UGA stop codon has been shown to be recoded as serine (PMID:24949972), its location in the Vegf-Ax isoform (aa 191) is denoted by an 'S'.
