Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** GPAA1 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in the attachment of GPI anchors to target proteins. The GPI anchor is a complex lipid molecule that is covalently attached to proteins, enabling them to interact with specific receptors and participate in various cellular processes. GPAA1 is a key component of the GPI anchor attachment machinery, responsible for facilitating the attachment of GPI anchors to target proteins. The GPAA1 protein is a member of the GPI anchor attachment complex, which also includes other proteins such as GPI anchor transamidase and GPI anchor transamidase complex. **Pathways and Functions:** GPAA1 is involved in various cellular pathways, including: 1. **Attachment of GPI anchor to protein**: GPAA1 is responsible for attaching GPI anchors to target proteins, which is essential for protein stability, localization, and function. 2. **Attachment of GPI anchor to UPAR**: GPAA1 also attaches GPI anchors to the Urokinase-type Plasminogen Activator Receptor (UPAR), a receptor that plays a crucial role in cell migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. 3. **Centrosome organization**: GPAA1 is involved in the organization of centrosomes, which are critical structures involved in cell division, cytokinesis, and cell polarity. 4. **Cytoskeleton organization**: GPAA1 also interacts with the cytoskeleton, which is essential for maintaining cell shape, motility, and intracellular transport. 5. **Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function**: GPAA1 is involved in the ER function, which is essential for protein folding, quality control, and lipid metabolism. **Clinical Significance:** GPAA1 is significantly expressed in various cell types, including extravillous trophoblasts, oogonial cells, and myeloid leukocytes. Abnormal expression or function of GPAA1 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Pregnancy complications**: GPAA1 is involved in the regulation of placental development and function, and its dysregulation has been linked to pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia and gestational diabetes. 2. **Cancer**: GPAA1 is overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer, and its dysregulation has been linked to tumor progression and metastasis. 3. **Autoimmune diseases**: GPAA1 is involved in the regulation of immune cell function, and its dysregulation has been linked to autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. 4. **Neurological disorders**: GPAA1 is involved in the regulation of neuronal function, and its dysregulation has been linked to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. In conclusion, GPAA1 is a critical regulator of protein modification and cellular function, and its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of GPAA1 in different physiological and pathological processes.
