Angiopoietin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ANGPT2 gene.[5]


Naturally occurring antagonist for both ANGPT1 and TIE2; expressed only at the sites of vascular remodeling; similar to angiopoietin-1[6]

Function

[edit]

Interactions

[edit]

ANGPT2 has been shown to interact with TEK tyrosine kinase.[7][8][9]
