Summary: Predicted to enable peptidyl-dipeptidase inhibitor activity. Involved in mesenchymal cell proliferation involved in ureteric bud development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including kidney development; positive regulation of transport; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in lysosome and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; branchial arch; embryo mesenchyme; lower jaw; and urinary system. Used to study Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome type 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome type 1; hepatocellular carcinoma; and nephroblastoma. Orthologous to human GPC3 (glypican 3).

GPC3 might be an alternative therapeutic target for Hepatocellular carcinoma treatment based on a mouse study where Curcumin suppressed HCC tumor growth through down-regulating GPC3/wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway.
Title: Both glypican-3/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and autophagy contributed to the inhibitory effect of curcumin on hepatocellular carcinoma.
This study provides new insights into the roles of GPC1 and GPC3 in mandibular morphogenesis. GPC3-knockout reduces mandibular growth, but GPC1 does not. These findings along with previous studies indicate that glypicans could be potential therapeutic agents to manage craniosynostosis and associated bony dysmorphology.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
