Summary
EGFL7 (EGF like domain multiple 7, HGNC:20594) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9q34.3, encoding Epidermal growth factor-like protein 7 (Q9UHF1). Regulates vascular tubulogenesis in vivo.
This gene encodes a secreted endothelial cell protein that contains two epidermal growth factor-like domains. The encoded protein may play a role in regulating vasculogenesis. This protein may be involved in the growth and proliferation of tumor cells. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function. Regulates vascular tubulogenesis in vivo. Inhibits platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-induced smooth muscle cell migration and promotes endothelial cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and angiogenesis.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with ITGAV/ITGB3 in an RGD-dependent manner, increasing endothelial cell’s motility.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Extracellular space.
Miscellaneous. Endothelial cells depleted in EGFL7 by siRNAs display dramatic alterations in adhesion, morphology, and sprouting. The defects are in part due to diminished RhoA expression and impaired focal adhesion localization.
