General description
Glypican 1 (GPC1) is located at 2q37.3 on the human chromosome. It belongs to the family of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored heparan sulfate proteoglycan. GPC1 is localized in the vascular system. GPC1 consists of an N-terminal secretory signal peptide, 14 conserved cysteine residues, a heparan sulfate (HS) attachment domain near the C terminus and a hydrophobic domain for attachment of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) at the C terminus.
Immunogen
Recombinant protein encompassing a sequence within the center region of human Glypican 1.
Application
Anti-GPC1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in flow cytometry and immunostaining.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Glypican 1 (GPC1) plays an important role in cell growth, differentiation and morphogenesis. It also plays a role in cell migration, adhesion, anti-coagulation, lipoprotein metabolism and modulation of growth factors. GPC1 exhibits chaperone-like activity by restoring the binding activity of oxidized VEGF165 (vascular endothelial growth factors-165). Overexpression of GPC1 results in over accumulation of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) in the Alzheimer′s disease (AD) brain. Mutation in this gene is associated with Niemann-Pick C1 disease.
