About This Section
Entrez Gene summary for VEGFC:
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor/vascular endothelial growth factor
(PDGF/VEGF) family, is active in angiogenesis and endothelial cell growth, and can also affect the permeability of
blood vessels. This secreted protein undergoes a complex proteolytic maturation, generating multiple processed forms
which bind and activate VEGFR-3 receptors. Only the fully processed form can bind and activate VEGFR-2 receptors. This
protein is structurally and functionally similar to vascular endothelial growth factor D. (provided by RefSeq, Jul
2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: VEGFC_HUMAN, P49767
Function: Growth factor active in angiogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and
migration and also has effects on the permeability of blood vessels. May function in angiogenesis of the venous and
lymphatic vascular systems during embryogenesis, and also in the maintenance of differentiated lymphatic endothelium
in adults. Binds and activates VEGFR-2 (KDR/FLK1) and VEGFR-3 (FLT4) receptors

Post-translational modifications:

  • Undergoes a complex proteolytic maturation which generates a variety of processed secreted forms with increased
    • activity toward VEGFR-3, but only the fully processed form could activate VEGFR-2. VEGF-C first form an antiparallel
    homodimer linked by disulfide bonds. Before secretion, a cleavage occurs between Arg-227 and Ser-228 producing a
    heterotetramer. The next extracellular step of the processing removes the N-terminal propeptide. Finally the mature
    VEGF-C is composed mostly of two VEGF homology domains (VHDs) bound by non-covalent interactions1
