| Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 11601 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable receptor tyrosine kinase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within angiogenesis; negative regulation of angiogenesis; and negative regulation of cell-substrate adhesion. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; central nervous system; hemolymphoid system; limb interdigital region; and metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hereditary lymphedema. Orthologous to human ANGPT2 (angiopoietin 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous inactivation of this gene results in impaired angiogenesis, abnormal lymphatic development and function, and ultimately postnatal lethality. [provided by MGI curators] |
