GPC5 belongs to the cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan family and is expressed in limb, kidney, developing central nervous system and brain tissue [ 21 22 ] . In vertebrates 6 glypican family members belonging to the proteoglycan family have so far been characterized [ 23 ] . Although there is a high degree of conservation of polypeptide sequence among family members, they are localized to different chromosomes.
The amino acid sequence of the heparin-binding region of HB-EGF ( 21KRKKKGKGLGKKRDPCLRKYK 41) [ 2 ] has been shown to have a strong affinity for heparin and may influence the interaction of this growth factor with cell-surface negatively charged heparan sulfate proteoglycans [ 22 ] . It remains to be seen whether specific/all of the EGF-like modules are required and whether calcium is needed for the interaction of HB-EGF with LTBP-3.
At the epithelium, GnRH neurons cross the basal laminae to initiate their migratory phase [ 15 ] .

Any or all of these may serve as substrates for proteolysis.
