Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) have been identified as ligands with
different effector functions of the vascular assembly and maturation-mediating receptor
tyrosine kinase Tie-2. To understand the molecular interactions of the angiopoietins with
their receptor, we have studied the binding of Ang-1 and Ang-2 to the Tie-2 receptor.

immunoprecipitation experiments analyzing the binding of Ang-1 and Ang-2 to truncation …
