Glypican-4 is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) that is encoded by the GPC4 gene in human. Glypican-4 belongs to the family of glypican-related integral membrane proteoglycans (GRIPs) that may be involved in the control of cell division and growth regulation. Deletion of the entire GPC4 gene and the two exons at the 3′ end of the adjacent GPC3 gene has been reported in a patient diagnosed with Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome (SGBS).
