ANGI_HUMAN Defects in ANG are the cause of susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 9 (ALS9) [MIM:611895. ALS is a degenerative disorder of motor neurons in the cortex, brain stem and spinal cord. ALS is characterized by muscular weakness and atrophy.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Function
ANGI_HUMAN May function as a tRNA-specific ribonuclease that abolishes protein synthesis by specifically hydrolyzing cellular tRNAs. Binds to actin on the surface of endothelial cells; once bound, angiogenin is endocytosed and translocated to the nucleus. Angiogenin induces vascularization of normal and malignant tissues. Angiogenic activity is regulated by interaction with RNH1 in vivo.[7][8]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The murine monoclonal antibody 26-2F neutralizes the angiogenic and ribonucleolytic activities of human angiogenin (ANG) and is highly effective in preventing the establishment and metastatic dissemination of human tumors in athymic mice. Here we report a 2.0 A resolution crystal structure for the complex of ANG with the Fab fragment of 26-2F that reveals the detailed interactions between ANG and the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of the antibody. Surprisingly, Fab binding induces a dramatic conformational change in the cell binding region of ANG at the opposite end of the molecule from the combining site; crosslinking experiments indicate that this rearrangement also occurs in solution. The ANG-Fab complex structure should be invaluable for designing maximally humanized versions of 26-2F for potential clinical use.
