Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
YW3548 i.e. BE49385A, a terpenoid lactone, natural inhibitor of GPI biosynthesis, inhibits transfer of phosphoethanolamine to the first mannose in mammalian cells but only slightly affects the surface expression of GPI-anchored proteins. Biosynthesis of GPI in the Pig-n knockout cells s not affected by YW3548, and yeast overexpressing MCD4 is highly resistant to YW3548 Mus musculus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function in Pig-n knockout F9 embryonal carcinoma cells, the first mannose in the GPI precursors is not modified by phosphoethanolamine. Further biosynthetic steps continue with the addition of the third mannose and the terminal phosphoethanolamine. The surface expression of Thy-1 is only partially affected. An inhibitor of GPI biosynthesis, YW3548, inhibits transfer of phosphoethanolamine to the first mannose in mammalian cells but only slightly affects the surface expression of GPI-anchored proteins Mus musculus
