Research Backgrounds
Mediates GPI anchoring in the endoplasmic reticulum, by replacing a protein's C-terminal GPI attachment signal peptide with a pre-assembled GPI. During this transamidation reaction, the GPI transamidase forms a carbonyl intermediate with the substrate protein.
The disulfide bond between PIGK/GPI8 and PIGT is important for normal enzyme activity.
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane>Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Forms a complex with PIGT, PIGS, PIGU and GAA1.
Belongs to the peptidase C13 family.
Research Fields
