Gene: [06p12/VEGF] vascular endothelial growth factor;

SUM

[1] Function: growth factor active in angiogenesis, particularily in endothelial cell growth. Subunit stucture: homodimer, disulfide-linked. Transcription: includes alternative splicing causing a formation of four distinctive polypeptide forms of VEGF - 121, 165, 189, and 206 amino acids. Sequence similarity: to platelet-derived growth factor alpha and beta polypeptides (GEM:07p22/PDGFA; GEM:22q1/PDGFB).
[2] Recent History: - According to D.W.Leung et al., 1989 (Dept Mol Biol, Genetech, South San Francisco, CA 94080), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a hep- arin-binding growth factor specific for vascular endothelial cells that is able to induce angiogenesis in vivo. Complementary DNA clones for bovine and human VEGF were isolated from cDNA libraries prepared from FC and HL60 leukemia cells, respectively. These cDNAs encode hydrophilic proteins with sequences related to those of the A and B chains of platelet-derived growth factor. DNA sequencing suggests the existence of several molecular species of VEGF. VEGFs are secreted proteins, in contrast to other endothelial cell mitogens such as acidic or basic FGFs and platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor. - According to E.Tischer et al., 1991 (California Biotech. Inc., Mountain View 94043), VEGF is an endothelial cell-specific mitogen, in particularly produced by cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. Analysis of VEGF tran- scripts in these cells revealed three different forms of VEGF cDNAs encod- ing three distinctive forms of the human VEGF polypeptides - 189, 165, and 121 amino acids in length. Comparison of the cDNA sequences with sequences derived from human VEGF genomic clones indicates that the VEGF gene con- tains eight exons and that the various VEGF transcripts arise by ALTERNA- TIVE SPLICING: in particularly, the 165-aa form is missing the residues encoded by exon 6, and the 121-aa form is missing the residues encoded by exons 6 and 7. The VEGF gene promoter region contains a single major tran- scription start site lying near a cluster of potential Sp1 factor binding sites. The promoter region also contains several potential binding sites for the transcription factors AP-1 and AP-2. - According to K.A.Houck et al., 1991 (Dept Mol Biol, Genetech, Inc., South San Francisco, California 94080), VEGF is a secreted, direct-acting mitogen specific for vascular endothelial cells and capable of stimulating angiogen- esis in vivo. Molecular cloning revealed multiple forms of VEGF, apparently arising from ALTERNATIVE SPLICING of its RNA transcript. The authors have examined various human cDNA libraries by the polymerase chain reaction tech- nique and discovered a FOURTH MOLECULAR FORM, VEGF-206. This form contains a 41-amino acid insertion relative to the most abundant form, VEGF-165, and includes the highly basic 24-amino acid insertion found in VEGF-189. South- ern blot analysis revealed that a single gene encoded these various forms, and nucleic acid sequence analysis of a portion of the VEGF gene revealed an intron/exon structure compatible with alternative splicing of RNA as a mechanism for their generation. Transient transfection of human embryonic kidney 293 cells showed that, like VEGF-189, VEGF-206 was predominately cell-associated and only very poorly secreted despite the presence of the SIGNAL PEPTIDE IDENTICAL TO THAT FOUND IN VEGF-121 AND VEGF-165, both of which are efficiently exported from the cell. Vascular permeability activ- ity was detected in the medium of 293 cells transfected with all four forms of VEGF; however, endothelial cell mitogenic activity was apparent only with VEGF-121 and VEGF-165. The authors concluded that alternative splicing of VEGF RNA can produce four polypeptides with strikingly differ- ent secretion patterns, which suggests multiple physiological roles for this family of proteins."
