Limb-clasping, cognitive deficit and increased vulnerability to kainic acid -induced seizures in neuronal GPI anchor deficiency mouse models

Post-translational modification of a protein with glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) is a conserved mechanism exists in all eukaryotes. Thus far, more than 150 human GPI anchored proteins have been discovered and about 30 enzymes have been reported to be involved in the biosynthesis and maturation of mammalian GPI. Phosphatidylinositol glycan biosynthesis class... Show more
