Protein function (UniProt)

GPI-anchor transamidase component GPAA1

Component of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor (GPI-anchor) transamidase (GPI-T) complex that catalyzes the formation of the linkage between a proprotein and a GPI-anchor and participates in GPI anchored protein biosynthesis (PubMed:11483512, PubMed:29100095, PubMed:34576938, PubMed:35165458, PubMed:35551457, PubMed:37684232, PubMed:9468317). Binds GPI-anchor (PubMed:37684232)
