GPI-anchors

Many cell surface proteins are anchored to the membrane by a glycolipid termed the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor, which is covalently attached to the C-terminus of the peptide. The core of the GPI anchor consists of multiple components and its biosynthesis involves multiple genes, such as those for glycosyltransferases.
