Angiogenic factor with G patch and FHA domains 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AGGF1gene.[5][6][7]
AGGF1 is a human gene that functions as an angiogenic factor with a G-patch and forkhead-associated domain.[8] This gene is predominantly expressed in activated, plump endothelial cells and acts to regulate angiogenesis and vascular development.[9] AGGF1 is known to interact with a wide range of proteins involved in vascular development.[10] Mutations to AGGF1 have been implicated in multiple cancers and is known to cause the rare congenital condition, Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome.[9][11][12]
