Anti-Human PIGX Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes a type I transmembrane protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The protein is an essential component of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-mannosyltransferase I, which transfers the first of the four mannoses in the GPI-anchor precursors during GPI-anchor biosynthesis. Studies in rat indicate that the protein is translated from a non-AUG translation initiation site. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.PIGX (Phosphatidylinositol Glycan Anchor Biosynthesis Class X) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis and Post-translational modification- synthesis of GPI-anchored proteins.
