perlecan
per·le·can (purґlə-kan) a proteoglycan of the extracellular matrix, consisting of three heparan sulfate chains bound to a 400-kD core and expressed by all cells that make basement membranes, of which it is a major component; it is also a component of cartilage and of the growth plate, where it is essential for long bone growth.
