Background: NG2/MCSP

NG2 (neuron/glia-type 2 antigen; also MCSP/melanoma chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan) is a 250‑500 kDa type I integral membrane proteoglycan found on synantocytes (NG2+ glia), vascular pericytes, chondroblasts, macrophages and melanoma cells. It binds multiple components of the ECM, and serves as a ligand for alpha 3 beta 1 and alpha 4 beta 1 integrins. Mature human NG2 is 2293 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains a large 2195 aa extracellular region (aa 30‑2224) and a short 79 aa cytoplasmic tail. NG2 is variably glycanated. Without proteoglycan, NG2 is expressed as a 250 kDa glycoprotein. Juxtamembrane proteolysis generates a soluble ECD that noncovalently associates with the transmembrane fragment. Over aa 1583‑2224, human NG2 is 81% aa identical to both mouse and canine NG2.
