VEGFA wt Allele
Human VEGFA wild-type allele is located within 6p12 and is approximately 16 kb in length. This allele, which encodes vascular endothelial growth factor A protein, plays a role in several processes related to vasculature function, including angiogenesis. The allele is also involved in endothelial cell growth cell migration and apoptotic inhibition. (NCI Thesaurus)
