Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 78928 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in attachment of GPI anchor to protein. Acts upstream of or within neuron apoptotic process and neuron differentiation. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle. Part of GPI-anchor transamidase complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in multiple congenital anomalies-hypotonia-seizures syndrome 3 and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. Orthologous to human PIGT (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class T). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation do not survive. [provided by MGI curators] |
