[5][6] This gene encodes a member of the neuropilin family of receptor proteins.

NRP2 is expressed by a wide variety of cell types.

The transmembrane protein has been reported to bind to SEMA3C, SEMA3F, VEGF-A, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, TGFβ, integrins and ANGPTL4 to promote downstream signaling pathways.

[7][8][9][10] Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
