<p align="justify"> For example, the semaphorins (SEMA) bind to the (a1/a2/b1) domains while Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) bind to (b1/b2)<ref name="structural study"/>. The c domain as well as the transmembrane domain, is involved in the receptor dimerization. The cytoplasmic domain does not contain a binding domain but a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDZ_domain PDZ domain]. This segment is only 42-44 amino acids length and by the way hasn't any catalytic function. It participates in the formation and stimulation of signalling complexes.</p>

<p align="justify">In 2007, a study has demonstrated that the interactions between b1 and b2, and between a2 and (b1/b2) are the same for Neuropilin 1 and 2. However a1 interacts differently with the other domains and these interactions are still not really understood.

The a1 and a2 domains are CUB domains and include <scene name='86/868191/Calcium_binding_site/1'>Calcium binding site</scene><ref name="structural study"/>. The ion is coordinated by two carbonyl oxygens from Ala(252)and Ile(253) and by three negatively charged side chains (Glu(195),Asp(209) and Asp(250))<ref name="structural study"/>.
