[5] This gene encodes a protein that is involved in GPI-anchor biosynthesis.

The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface.

This gene encodes an essential component of the multisubunit enzyme, GPI transamidase.
