alternative products:Additional isoforms seem to exist,function:Growth factor for endothelial cells. VEGF-B167 binds heparin and neuropilin-1 whereas the binding to neuropilin-1 of VEGF-B186 is regulated by proteolysis.,PTM:VEGF-B186 is O-glycosylated.,similarity:Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.,subcellular location:Secreted but remains associated to cells or to the extracellular matrix unless released by heparin.,subunit:Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Can also form heterodimer with VEGF.,tissue specificity:Expressed in all tissues except liver. Highest levels found in heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas.,
