PIG-Y Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The product of this gene, which is well-conserved, is encoded by the same bicistronic transcript that encodes phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis, class Y, but the two proteins are unrelated. This gene represents the protein encoded by the upstream open reading frame, while the protein encoded by the downstream open reading frame is represented by GeneID:84992.

Uniprot Description
PIGY: Component of the GPI-GlcNAc transferase (GPI-GnT) complex in the endoplasmic reticulum, a complex that catalyzes transfer of GlcNAc from UDP-GlcNAc to an acceptor phosphatidylinositol, the first step in the production of GPI-anchors for cell surface proteins. May act by regulating the catalytic subunit PIGA. Belongs to the PREY family.
Protein type: Mitochondrial; Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Endoplasmic reticulum
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q22.1
Cellular Component: glycosylphosphatidylinositol-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (GPI-GnT) complex; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; plasma membrane; integral to membrane
Biological Process: GPI anchor biosynthetic process

Product Notes
The PIGY pyurf (Catalog #AAA152108) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's PIG-Y can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). PIG-Y peptide is used for blocking the activity of PIG-Y antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PIGY pyurf for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PIG-Y, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
