HSPG 2 ( heparan sulfate proteoglycan 2 )
The transcribed mRNA is 14,294 bp (Cohen et al., 1993). An alternative transcript for unc-52, the homologous gene to perlecan in C. elegans, has been reported (Spike et al., 2002). In addition, a human alternative transcript was submitted to the NCBI (Accession Q8TEU3_HUMAN) as a sequence for a short version variant, miniperl, encoding a 240 amino acid protein of 25.942 kD. Expression of HSPG2 ...
متن کاملDrosophila syndecan: conservation of a cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan.
In mammals, cell-surface heparan sulfate is required for the action of basic fibroblast growth factor, fibronectin, antithrombin III, as well as other effectors. The syndecans, a gene family of four transmembrane proteoglycans that participates in these interactions, are the major source of this heparan sulfate. Based on the conserved transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of the mammalian synde...
متن کاملHeparan sulfate proteoglycan is a mechanosensor on endothelial cells.
The objective of this study was to test whether a glycosaminoglycan component of the surface glycocalyx layer is a fluid shear stress sensor on endothelial cells (ECs). Because enhanced nitric oxide (NO) production in response to fluid shear stress is a characteristic and physiologically important response of ECs, we evaluated NOx (NO2- and NO3-) production in response to fluid shear stress aft...
متن کاملImmunopurification and characterization of a neuronal heparan sulfate proteoglycan.
We have identified a unique heparan sulfate (HeS) proteoglycan synthesized by the neuronal-like cell line PC12. The proteoglycan, purified with monoclonal antibodies from medium conditioned by PC12 cells, has an apparent molecular weight of 350,000, and it contains a Mr 80,000 core protein and HeS side chains of Mr 15,000 each. The purified molecule has the same apparent size and density as it ...
متن کاملIsolation of a heparan sulfate-containing proteoglycan from basement membrane.
We have isolated a unique, basement membrane proteoglycan from the Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) sarcoma. This proteoglycan, estimated to be 0.75 X 10(6) daltons, was found to contain about equal amounts of protein and covalently linked heparan sulfate. Antibody prepared against this proteoglycan reacts with the basement membrane matrix in the tumor and with the basement membranes in skin, kidney...
