PIGL

Full Name
Phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class L

Keywords
CHIME; Phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class L

Background
This gene encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the second step of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) biosynthesis, which is the de-N-acetylation of N-acetylglucosaminylphosphatidylinositol (GlcNAc-PI). Study of a similar rat enzyme suggests that this protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum.
