Proteomics (Proteome ID):

Vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) (Flt4 ligand) (Flt4-L) (Vascular endothelial growth factor-related protein) (VRP)

Proteomics (Chromosome):

UP000005640

Mass Spectrometry:

N/A

Function [CC]:

Growth factor active in angiogenesis, and endothelial cell growth, stimulating their proliferation and migration and also has effects on the permeability of blood vessels. May function in angiogenesis of the venous and lymphatic vascular systems during embryogenesis, and also in the maintenance of differentiated lymphatic endothelium in adults. Binds and activates KDR/VEGFR2 and FLT4/VEGFR3 receptors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20145116}.

Tissue Specificity:

Spleen, lymph node, thymus, appendix, bone marrow, heart, placenta, ovary, skeletal muscle, prostate, testis, colon and small intestine and fetal liver, lung and kidney, but not in peripheral blood lymphocyte.

Disease:

Lymphedema, hereditary, 1D (LMPH1D) [MIM:615907]: A chronic disabling condition which results in swelling of the extremities due to altered lymphatic flow. Patients with lymphedema suffer from recurrent local infections and physical impairment. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23410910, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24744435}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Mutagenesis:

MUTAGEN 227 227 R->S: No proteolytic processing and lower effect on VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9233800}.
