Background
This gene encodes a protein that is involved in GPI-anchorbiosynthesis. The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor is aglycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteinsto the cell surface. This gene encodes an essential component ofthe multisubunit enzyme, GPI transamidase. GPI transamidasemediates GPI anchoring in the endoplasmic reticulum, by catalyzingthe transfer of fully assembled GPI units to proteins. [provided byRefSeq].
