PIGU

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: PIGU
  • Official Name: phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class U
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 128869
  • UniProt: Q9H490
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: The protein encoded by this gene shares similarity with Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cdc91, a predicted integral membrane protein that may function in cell division control. The protein encoded by this gene is the fifth subunit of GPI transamidase that attaches GPI-anchors to proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
  • UniProt Summary: Component of the GPI transamidase complex. May be involved in the recognition of either the GPI attachment signal or the lipid portion of GPI. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12802054}.
