The PIGA gene provides instructions for making a protein called phosphatidylinositol glycan class A (shortened to PIG-A). The PIG-A protein takes part in a series of steps that produce a molecule called glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor.

2024年12月25日 · PIGA (Phosphatidylinositol Glycan Anchor Biosynthesis Class A) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with PIGA include Multiple Congenital Anomalies-Hypotonia-Seizures Syndrome 2 and Neurodevelopmental Disorder With Epilepsy And Hemochromatosis.

Phosphatidylinositol N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase subunit A (PIG-A, or phosphatidylinositol glycan, class A) is the catalytic subunit of the phosphatidylinositol N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase enzyme, which in humans is encoded by the PIGA gene.

2024年4月3日 · This gene encodes a protein required for synthesis of N-acetylglucosaminyl phosphatidylinositol (GlcNAc-PI), the first intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of GPI anchor. The GPI anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood …

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) is a glycolipid that attaches dozens of different proteins to the cell surface. PIGA is 1 of several proteins required for the first step of GPI anchor biosynthesis (review by Brodsky, 2008). For further information on the PIG gene family and GPI biosynthesis, see GENE FAMILY.

This gene encodes a protein required for synthesis of N-acetylglucosaminyl phosphatidylinositol (GlcNAc-PI), the first intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of GPI anchor. The GPI anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and which serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface.
