TIE2 (tyrosine kinase with Ig and EGF homology domains 2) is expressed almost exclusively in endothelial cells in mice, rats and humans. This receptor possesses a unique extracellular domain containing two immunoglobulin like loops separated by three epidermal growth factor like repeats that are connected to three fibronectin type III like repeats. The ligand for the receptor is Angiopoietin 1. Defects in TIE2 are associated with inherited venous malformations, the TIE2 signaling pathway appears to be critical for endothelial cell smooth muscle cell communication in venous morphogenesis.Synonyms: Angiopoietin-1 receptor, TIE-2, TIE2, Tunica interna endothelial cell kinase, Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor TEK, Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor TIE-2, p140 TEK
