Pigu - phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis, class U

Predicted to contribute to GPI anchor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in attachment of GPI anchor to protein; protein localization to cell surface; and regulation of receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of GPI-anchor transamidase complex. Is expressed in 1st branchial arch; forebrain; and limb. Orthologous to human PIGU (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class U). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
