A portion of amino acids 722-750 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this NRP1 antibody.
NRP1 is a membrane-bound coreceptor to a tyrosine kinase receptor for both vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF, MIM 192240) and semaphorin (see SEMA3A, MIM 603961) family members. NRP1 plays versatile roles in angiogenesis, axon guidance, cell survival, migration, and invasion.
