蛋白名称
Phosphatidylinositol-glycan biosynthesis class W protein (PIG-W) (EC 2.3.-.-)
免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from human protein . at AA range: 370-450
特异性
PIGW Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of protein.
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
背景
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) is a complex glycolipid that anchors many proteins to the cell surface. PIGW acts in the third step of GPI biosynthesis and acylates the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol (Murakami et al., 2003 [PubMed 14517336]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],
功能
function:Probable acetyltransferase, which acetylates the inositol ring of phosphatidylinositol during biosynthesis of GPI-anchor. Acetylation during GPI-anchor biosynthesis is not essential for the subsequent mannosylation and is usually removed soon after the attachment of GPIs to proteins.,pathway:Glycolipid biosynthesis; glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor biosynthesis.,similarity:Belongs to the PIGW family.,
