additional information GPI anchor deficiency is most often caused by mutation in the Pig-a gene, thus measuring GPI anchor deficiency is considered to be almost equivalent to measuring Pig-a mutation. Development and validation of an in vitro Pig-a assay in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells, method optimization, overview. Antibodies against GPI-linked CD90.2 and stably expressed CD45 are used to determine GPI-status by flow cytometry, antibody concentration and incubation times are optimized. The optimum phenotypic expression period is 8 days. Application of the in vitro Pig-a assay to a selection of well-validated genotoxic and non-genotoxic compounds. EMS, N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea, and 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide dose dependently increase the numbers of GPI(-) cells, while etoposide, mitomycin C, and a bacterial-specific mutagen do not dependently increase the numbers of GPI(-) cells Mus musculus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction mutations in Pig-a prevent GPI-anchor synthesis resulting in loss of cell-surface GPI-linked proteins Mus musculus
metabolism the enzyme is involved in the glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor synthesis pathway which is highly conserved between species Mus musculus
physiological function hemizygous phosphatidylinositol class A (Pig-a) forms the catalytic subunit of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that is required for glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor biosynthesis Mus musculus
