Comments:

This gene encodes the perlecan protein

which consists of a core protein to which three long chains of glycosaminoglycans(heparan sulfate or chondroitin sulfate) are attached. The perlecan protein is a large multidomain proteoglycan that binds to and cross-links many extracellular matrix components and cell-surface molecules. It has been shown that this protein interacts with laminin

prolargin

collagen type IV

FGFBP1

FBLN2

FGF7 and Transthyretin

etc. and plays essential roles in multiple biological activities. Perlecan is a key component of the vascular extracellular matrix

where it helps to maintain the endothelial barrier function. It is a potent inhibitor of smooth muscle cell proliferation and is thus thought to help maintain vascular homeostasis. It can also promote growth factor (e.g.

FGF2) activity and thus stimulate endothelial growth and re-generation. It is a major component of basement membranes

where it is involved in the stabilization of other molecules as well as being involved with glomerular permeability to macromolecules and cell adhesion. Mutations in this gene cause Schwartz-Jampel syndrome type 1

Silverman-Handmaker type of dyssegmental dysplasia

and Tardive dyskinesia.[provided by RefSeq
