Record overview

MGPD IDMGP006938
Gene ID284098
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namephosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis, class W
Gene Symbol PIGW
SynonymsGwt1; HPMRS5;
Alternate namesphosphatidylinositol-glycan biosynthesis class W protein; PIG-W; phosphatidylinositol glycan, class W;
Chromosome17
Map Location17q12
EC Number2.3.-.-
SummaryGlycosylphosphatidylinositol (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]
