VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A) is a homodimeric, disulfide-linked glycoprotein involved in angiogenesis which promotes tumor progression and metastasis. It exhibits potent mitogenic and permeability inducing properties specific for the vascular endothelium. Of the four isoforms of VEGF, the smaller two, VEGF 165 and VEGF 121, are secreted proteins and act as diffusible agents, whereas the larger two (VEGF 189 and VEGF 206) remain cell associated. The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 141-141: K → N and 142-182: missing. This isoform is often found as a disulfide linked homodimer.
