Also known as PIG-T this protein is part of the GPI transamidase complex and has a molecular mass of approximately 68 kDa. It resides in the endoplasmic reticulum where it supports the attachment of various proteins to the cell membrane through GPI anchoring. PIGT is ubiquitously expressed across different human tissues indicating its fundamental role in cellular physiology.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPIGT acts as a subunit within the GPI transamidase complex that enhances the transfer of pre-assembled GPI units to proteins. This activity anchors proteins to the cell surface which is necessary for their stability and function. The GPI anchor allows effective signaling adhesion and protection of proteins impacting many cellular processes. The interdependency with other subunits such as PIGA PIGK and PIGS ensures the complete function of the GPI transamidase complex.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPIGT remains key within the GPI-anchor biosynthesis pathway playing a critical role in cell surface protein localization. It interacts with other members like PIGU and GAA1 within this pathway forming interactions necessary for proper transit and attachment of GPI-anchored proteins. The functionality of the GPI-anchor pathway directly influences cellular communication through pathways like signal transduction which are essential for different biological processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations or deficiencies in PIGT link to Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) and Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy (EIEE). PNH involves defective GPI-anchored proteins affecting the regulation of cell membrane stability while EIEE relates to neurological complications due to disturbed protein functioning. PIGT connects with other proteins like PIGM and PIGL contributing to the disorders' pathophysiology when disruptions in GPI-anchor biosynthesis occur.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845134667945,"sku":"ab266183","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab266183","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
