Two different types of Neuropilin have been discovered in vertebrates: Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and Neuropilin-2 (NRP2). They have 44% of similarity by comparing their amino acid sequences. In the human genome, it is located on the chromosome 10 and their molar weights fluctuate between 120 and 130 kDa. | ||
These proteins are particularly found in the membrane of the endothelial cells but the Neuropilin-1 is involved in several process such as axon guidance during the embryonic development, recognition of the Vascular Endothelial cell Growth Factor ([[VEGF]]) and recognition of covid-19.</p> | These proteins are particularly found in the membrane of the endothelial cells but the Neuropilin-1 is involved in several process such as axon guidance during the embryonic development, recognition of the Vascular Endothelial cell Growth Factor ([[VEGF]]) and recognition of covid-19.</p> | ||
