Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=6; Name=1; IsoId=Q5H8A4-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q5H8A4-2; Sequence=VSP_019832; Note=No experimental confirmation available.; Name=3; IsoId=Q5H8A4-3; Sequence=VSP_019828; Note=No experimental confirmation available.; Name=4; IsoId=Q5H8A4-4; Sequence=VSP_019831, VSP_019833; Note=May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.; Name=5; IsoId=Q5H8A4-5; Sequence=VSP_019827, VSP_019829, VSP_019830; Note=No experimental confirmation available.; Name=6; IsoId=Q5H8A4-6; Sequence=VSP_054387, VSP_054388, VSP_019833; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
FunctionEthanolamine phosphate transferase involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor biosynthesis. Transfers ethanolamine phosphate to the GPI second mannose. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15632136}.
PathwayGlycolipid biosynthesis; glycosylphosphatidylinositol- anchor biosynthesis.
Sequence CautionSequence=AAQ88902.1; Type=Erroneous termination; Positions=311; Note=Translated as Gln.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAA91046.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAB55130.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the PIGG/PIGN/PIGO family. PIGG subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15632136}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15632136}.
SubunitForms a complex with PIGF. PIGF is required to stabilize it. Competes with PIGO for the binding of PIGF.
