| description | Phosphatidylinositol-glycan biosynthesis class T protein (PIG-T, also known as Gpi16 in budding yeasts) is a component of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) trans-amidase complex that adds GPIs to newly synthesized proteins []. Mammalian GPI transamidase consists of at least five components: Gaa1, Gpi8, PIG-S, PIG-T, and PIG-U, all five of which are required for its function. It is possible that Gaa1, Gpi8, PIG-S, and PIG-T form a tightly associated core that is only weakly associated with PIG-U. The exact function of PIG-S is unclear []. |
