Phosphatidyl inositol-glycans(PIGs) are multi-pass transmembrane proteins that localize to the endoplasmic reticulum.
PIGs exhibit various functions but all are crucial for the biosynthesis of the glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchor.
Some PIG proteins are components of the GPI transamidase complex and play a role in the recognition of either the GPI attachment signal or the lipid portion of GPI.
Other PIGs belong to the glycosyltransferase complex and function in the transfer of N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc) to phosphatidyl inositol (PI).
A variety of other PIGs play distinct roles in GPI synthesis.
PIG-F functions as an auxiliary subunit of ethanolamine phosphate (EtNP) transferases.
It associates with PIG-O and is required for its expression and stability.
Together these two PIGs function as an EtNP transferase and catalyze the transfer of EtNP to the third mannose (Man-3) of GPI.
A mutation in the gene encoding PIG-F may result in a block of EtNP addition to Man-3 and lead to an absence of GPI-anchored proteins.
