Glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis and remodeling are required for neural tube closure, heart development, and cranial neural crest cell survival

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors attach nearly 150 proteins to the cell membrane. Patients with pathogenic variants in GPI biosynthesis genes develop diverse phenotypes including seizures, dysmorphic facial features and cleft palate through an ...

The developmental cell biology of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Trypanosoma brucei provides an excellent system for studies of many aspects of cell biology, including cell structure and morphology, organelle positioning, cell division and protein trafficking. However, the trypanosome has a complex life cycle in which

Biochemical characterization of the initial steps of the Kennedy pathway in Trypanosoma brucei:the ethanolamine and choline kinases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Note related output below contains correction of this paper.Ethanolamine and choline are major components of the trypanosome membrane phospholipids, in the form of GPEtn (glycero-phosphoethanolamine) and GPCho (glycerophosphocholine).

Characterization of Arabidopsis Post-Glycosylphosphatidylinositol Attachment to Proteins Phospholipase 3 Like Genes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Lipid remodeling of Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors is required for their maturation and may influence the localization and function of GPI-anchored proteins (GPI-APs).

A glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored carbonic anhydrase-related protein of Toxoplasma gondii is important for rhoptry biogenesis and virulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Carbonic anhydrase-related proteins (CARPs) have previously been described as catalytically inactive proteins closely related to α-carbonic anhydrases (α-CAs).

GPIHBP1, a GPI-anchored protein required for the lipolytic processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
GPIHBP1, a small glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein, is required for the lipolytic processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. GPIHBP1 knockout mice exhibit chylomicronemia, even on a low-fat diet, with plasma triglyceride levels of 3 ...

Molecular insights into biogenesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
GPI-T catalyzes the committed step in GPI anchor protein biogenesis. Here, Xu et al. report the cryo-EM structure of the human GPI-T, revealing critical elements within an elongated, shared active site which is topologically arranged for substrate ...

Synthesis and structural characterization of a mimetic membrane-anchored prion protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
During pathogenesis of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) an abnormal form (PrPSc) of the host encoded prion protein (PrPC) accumulates in insoluble fibrils and plaques. The two forms of PrP appear to have identical covalent structures, but
