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
