This protein carries a mass of approximately 37 kDa. You find PIGK in the endoplasmic reticulum across various cell types where it assists in the post-translational modification processes required for protein anchoring to cell membranes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe GPI transamidase complex which includes PIGK facilitates the attachment of proteins to the cell membrane via GPI anchors. This activity is a critical post-translational modification essential for the functionality and localization of these proteins. Within this complex PIGK operates alongside other components such as PIGT and GPAA1 to ensure correct positioning and attachment of GPI-anchored proteins.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPIGK contributes to the biosynthesis and remodeling of GPI-anchored proteins impacting the GPI-anchor biosynthesis pathway itself. This pathway plays an integral role in cellular processes that involve anchoring proteins like CD55 and CD59 which are important for membrane dynamics and cell surface interactions. As part of these pathways PIGK's function links closely with other proteins in the remodeling process ensuring proper protein placement and functionality.\u003cbr\u003e\nPIGK's role in GPI-anchor biosynthesis links it to various inherited GPI deficiencies. A disruption in PIGK function may contribute to neurological symptoms and developmental disorders like hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome (HPMRS). The connection between PIGK and diseases often involves interactions with other components of the GPI biosynthesis pathway such as PIGA highlighting the significance of PIGK in maintaining cellular and physiological homeostasis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850196504745,"sku":"ab201693","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab201693","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
