项目摘要
Cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are abundant,
ubiquitous molecules, that bind via heparan sulfate (HS) chains to
growth factors, extracellular matrix proteins, and other important
cellular effectors. The major cell surface HSPGs are products of two
gene families: the syndecans, which are transmembrane proteins, and the
glypicans, which are glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored. Four
syndecans and at least five glypicans are expressed in mammals,
including man. The biological functions of cell surface HSPGs are poorly
understood, but at least one function involves regulation of the
responses of cells to polypeptide growth factors. Recently, a human
birth defects syndrome associated with dysregulated tissue growth was
shown to be caused by null mutations in glypican-3. Genetic studies in
the fruitfly, Drosophila, have also linked loss of glypican function to
defects in tissue growth and patterning. One tissue in which glypicans
are likely to play especially important development roles is the nervous
system. Experiments with cultured neutral cells and lower organisms have
long pointed to crucial roles for HSPGs in neutral patterning, axon
guidance, and synapse formation. Previous work on this project has
demonstrated that glypicans-1 and -2 are among the most abundant HSPGs
in the mammalian brain, and are expressed in locations such as neutral
precursor zones, growing axons, and synaptic terminal fields, that are
consistent with playing such developmental roles. The goals for the
next project period focus on uncovering the functions of glypicans-1 and
-2 in the mammalian nervous system, and on relating glypican function
to structural features of the glypicans, such as the presence of HS
chains, the mode of membrane anchorage, and presence of a large N-
terminal globular domain that does not carry HS, yet has been highly
conserved throughout evolution. Functional experiments involve the
analysis of mice engineered to lack glypican-1, glypican-2, or both.
Glypican-2 null mice have already been made, and the generation of
glypican-1 null mice is in progress. Analysis of structure-function
relationships in glypicans will use the fruitfly as an experimental
system in which genes encoding altered glypicans can be rapidly and
quantitatively tested for function. Finally, the results of observing
mutant phenotypes and making structure/function correlations will be
used to direct a genetic and biochemical search for the ligands with
which glypicans interact in mammalian nervous system development. These
studies should provide insights into how an important and poorly
understood class of molecules regulates basic developmental processes,
particularly in the nervous system.
