The TIE family were initially associated with formation of blood vessels. Endogenous ligands are angiopoietin-1 (ANGPT1, Q15389), angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2, O15123), and angiopoietin-4 (ANGPT4, Q9Y264). Angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2, O15123) appears to act as an endogenous antagonist of angiopoietin-1 function.
