Predominantly expressed in neural tissues and encoded by human LGI1 Gene, a 557-amino acid 64-kD precursor yields mature 60-kD putative tumor suppressor Leucine-Rich Glioma-Inactivated Protein, containing a putative extracellular N-terminus and hydrophobic transmembrane segment, as well as leucine-rich repeats (LRR) with conserved cysteine-rich flanking sequences.

The increase in secreted biologically active VEGF protein from cells exposed to hypoxia is partly because of an increased transcription rate, mediated by binding of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF1) to a hypoxia responsive element in the 5'-flanking region of the VEGF gene. bHLH-PAS transcription factor that interacts with the Ah receptor nuclear translocator (Arnt), and its predicted amino acid sequence, exhibits significant similarity to the hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha (HIF1a) product.
