vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF] receptor

Function

• the VEGF-kinase ligand/receptor signaling system plays a role in vascular development & regulation of vascular permeability

Structure

• VEGF receptors dimerize

More general terms

• tyrosine kinase receptor (RTK)
• glycoprotein

More specific terms

• vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1; VEGFR-1; vascular permeability factor receptor; tyrosine-protein kinase receptor FLT; Flt-1; tyrosine-protein kinase FRT; Fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (FLT1, FLT, FRT)
• vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2; VEGFR-2; kinase insert domain receptor; protein-tyrosine kinase receptor Flk-1; CD309 (KDR, FLK1)
• vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3; VEGFR-3; tyrosine-protein kinase receptor FLT4 (FLT4)

Additional terms

• vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor
• vascular endothelial growth factor family protein (VEGF family)
