The first step of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor biosynthesis in all eukaryotes is the addition of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to phosphatidylinositol (PI) which is catalysed by a UDP-GlcNAc : PI α1-6 GlcNAc-transferase. This enzyme has been shown to be a complex of at least seven subuni...
