Binds to TEK/TIE2,competing for the ANGPT1 binding site,and modulating ANGPT1 signaling. Can induce tyrosine phosphorylation of TEK/TIE2 in the absence of ANGPT1. In the absence of angiogenic inducers,such as VEGF,ANGPT2-mediated loosening of cell-matrix contacts may induce endothelial cell apoptosis with consequent vascular regression. In concert with VEGF,it may facilitate endothelial cell migration and proliferation,thus serving as a permissive angiogenic signal.
