Background: Angiopoietin-3
Mouse angiopoietin-3 (Ang-3) (1), is a secreted glycoprotein belonging to the angiopoietin family. It has the characteristic structural motifs of angiopoietins including the coiled-coiled domain near the amino-terminus and a fibrinogen-like domain at the C-terminus. Mouse Ang-3 cDNA encodes a 509 amino acid (aa) precursor protein with a 21 aa signal peptide. It shares 47%, 46%, and 54% aa sequence identity with mouse Ang-1, mouse Ang-2, and human Ang-4, respectively. Although the sequence homology is much higher between the human and mouse counterparts for Ang-1 (97%) and Ang-2 (85%), mouse Ang-3 is believed to be an ortholog of human Ang-4 based on chromosomal localization studies (1, 2). Human Ang-4 is highly expressed in lung and in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In contrast, mouse Ang-3 is expressed in multiple mouse tissues. Human ANG-4 is an agonist that can bind and activate Tie-2, a receptor tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin and epidermal growth factor homology domains expressed primarily on endothelial cells and early hematopoietic cells (2, 3). Mouse Ang-3 has been reported to be a Tie-2 antagonist. It is likely that mouse Ang-3, like Ang-2, may exert agonist or antagonist activities depending on the cell context (1, 3, 4).
