Descriptor neuropilina-1
Scope note: Receptor dimérico de la superficie celular implicado en la angiogénesis (NEOVASCULARIZACIÓN FISIOLÓGICA) y en la GUÍA AXONAL. La neuropilina-1 es una proteína transmembranaria de 140 kDa que se une a las SEMAFORINAS DE CLASE 3 y a varios otros factores de crecimiento. La neuropilina-1 forma complejos con plexinas o RECEPTORES DE VEGF; su afinidad de unión y especificidad están determinadas por la composición del dímero de neuropilina y la identidad de otros receptores que forman complejos con ella. La neuropilina-1 se expresa en distintos patrones durante el desarrollo neural, complementarios a los descritos para NEUROPILINA-2.

Scope note: A dimeric cell surface receptor involved in angiogenesis (NEOVASCULARIZATION, PHYSIOLOGICAL) and AXONAL GUIDANCE. Neuropilin-1 is a 140-kDa transmembrane protein that binds CLASS 3 SEMAPHORINS, and several other growth factors. Neuropilin-1 forms complexes with plexins or VEGF RECEPTORS; their binding affinity and specificity are determined by the composition of the neuropilin dimer and the identity of other receptors complexed with it. Neuropilin-1 is expressed in distinct patterns during neural development, complementary to those described for NEUROPILIN-2.
