About Piga

Summary

Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in GPI anchor biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to Leukemia Inhibitory Factor. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be part of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (GPI-GnT) complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in multiple congenital anomalies-hypotonia-seizures syndrome 2 and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. Orthologous to human PIGA (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
