Cell surface proteoglycan that bears heparan sulfate. Binds, via the heparan sulfate side chains, alpha-4 (V) collagen and participates in Schwann cell myelination (By similarity). May act as a catalyst in increasing the rate of conversion of prion protein PRPN(C) to PRNP(Sc) via associating (via the heparan sulfate side chains) with both forms of PRPN, targeting them to lipid rafts and facilitating their interaction. Required for proper skeletal muscle differentiation by sequestering FGF2 in lipid rafts preventing its binding to receptors (FGFRs) and inhibiting the FGF-mediated signaling.

Glypican 1 (GPC1) also known as glypican-1 is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan anchored to the cell membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor. This protein belongs to the glypican family and has an approximate mass of 60 to 70 kDa. GPC1 is found mainly on the surface of cells in the central nervous system as well as in muscle tissues and certain epithelial cells. Its structure facilitates interaction with cell surface receptors and extracellular matrix components playing an important role in cellular communication and signaling processes.
GPC1 influences the regulation of growth factors and morphogens and it has a significant role in the cell division and growth processes. It is not recognized as part of any larger protein complex but interacts with diverse ligand molecules. Researchers identify GPC1 as an important facilitator of fibroblast growth factors (FGF) and sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling. Its interaction with molecular partners helps to regulate developmental signals important for proper cellular function and organ development.
The contributions of GPC1 are observed in the hedgehog signaling pathway and fibroblast growth factor signaling. GPC1's interaction within the hedgehog pathway is critical for organizing cellular growth and differentiation while its involvement in the FGF pathway supports angiogenesis and wound healing. GPC1 coordinates with other glypican family members and related proteins like FGFR1 to mediate these signaling processes effectively.
Researchers have linked GPC1 with cancer progression and neurodegenerative diseases. Abnormal GPC1 expression is often noted in pancreatic cancer influencing tumor growth and metastasis through its modulation of growth factor signaling. Moreover its role in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease establishes connections with amyloid-beta peptides and tau proteins contributing to disease pathogenesis. These associations make GPC1 an intriguing target for therapeutic intervention and a focus for ongoing medical research.
