Unique motifs identify PIG-A proteins from glycosyltransferases of the GT4 family
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The first step of GPI anchor biosynthesis is catalyzed by PIG-A, an enzyme that transfers <it>N</it>-acetylglucosamine from UDP-<it>N</it>-acetylglucosamine to phosphatidylinositol. This protein is present in...
