Entry terms

  • Fetal Liver Kinase 1
  • Fetal Liver Kinase-1
  • Flk 1 Protein
  • Flk-1 Protein
  • Flk 1 Receptor Tyrosine Kinase
  • Flk-1 Receptor Tyrosine Kinase

  • Kinase Insert Domain Receptor
  • Tyrosine Kinase, KDR
  • VEGFR-2
  • VEGF Receptor Flk 1
  • VEGF Receptor Flk-1
  • VEGF Receptor KDR

Scope note

  • A 200-230-kDa tyrosine kinase receptor for vascular endothelial growth factors found primarily in endothelial and hematopoietic cells and their precursors. VEGFR-2 is important for vascular and hematopoietic development, and mediates almost all endothelial cell responses to VEGF.

History note

  • 2003; for FETAL LIVER KINASE-1, KDR TYROSINE KINASE, FLK-1 RECEPTOR TYROSINE KINASE & FLK-1 PROTEIN use RECEPTORS, VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR 1993-2002; for VEGFR-2 use RECEPTORS, VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR 1996-2002
