Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Secreted. Note=Secreted but remains associated to cells or to the extracellular matrix unless released by heparin.

Function

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.
