basement membrane-specific heparan sulfate proteoglycan core protein; HSPG; perlecan; PLC (HSPG2)
Function:
- integral component of basement membranes
- responsible for the fixed negative electrostatic charge of basement membrane
- role in the charge-selective ultrafiltration properties of basement membrane
- serves as an attachment substrate for cells N-glycosylated & O-glycosylated
- purified perlecan has a strong tendency to aggregate in dimers or stellate structures
- interacts with other basement membrane components such as laminin, prolargin & collagen typ-4
- interacts with COL13A1, FGFBP1 & VWA1
Structure:
- contains three heparan sulfate chains
- contains 4 EGF-like domains
- contains 22 Ig-like C2-type domain (immunoglobulin-like)
- contains 11 laminin EGF-like domains
- contains 3 laminin G-like domains
- contains 3 laminin IV type A domains
- contains 4 LDL-receptor class A domains
- contains 1 SEA domain
Compartment:
- secreted, extracellular space
- extracellular matrix, basement membrane
Expression: found in the basement membranes
Pathology:
- defects in HSPG2 are the cause of
a) Schwartz-Jampel syndrome
b) dyssegmental dysplasia Silverman-Handmaker type
