Summary
GPAA1 (glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor attachment 1, HGNC:4446) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 8q24.3, encoding GPI-anchor transamidase component GPAA1 (O43292). Component of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor (GPI-anchor) transamidase (GPI-T) complex that catalyzes the formation of the linkage between a proprotein and a GPI-anchor and participates in GPI anchored protein biosynthesis.
Posttranslational glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor attachment serves as a general mechanism for linking proteins to the cell surface membrane. The protein encoded by this gene presumably functions in GPI anchoring at the GPI transfer step. The mRNA transcript is ubiquitously expressed in both fetal and adult tissues. The anchor attachment protein 1 contains an N-terminal signal sequence, 1 cAMP- and cGMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation site, 1 leucine zipper pattern, 2 potential N-glycosylation sites, and 8 putative transmembrane domains.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 11)
- a conserved proline in the last transmembrane segment of Gaa1 is required for glycosylphosphatidylinositol recognition by GPI transamidase (PMID:14660601)
- passively retained in the ER by a signalless mechanism (PMID:15713669)
- Increased expression of glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol anchor attachment protein 1 is associated with gene amplification in hepatocellular carcinoma (PMID:16642471)
- Results show an increased expression level and elevated copy number for GAA1 in head and neck squamous carcinoma, suggesting a role for this GPI anchor subunit in HNSCC. (PMID:18028549)
- the lumenal domain of GAA1/GPAA1 has a 3D structure similar to that of an M28-type aminopeptidase. GAA1/GPAA1 is a candidate for the enzyme that catalyzes the peptide bond formation between the omega-site and a phosphoethanolamine group of GPI lipid anchor. (PMID:24743167)
- The splicing mutation was found to decrease GPAA1 mRNA. (PMID:29100095)
- Mechanistically, GPAA1 enhanced the levels of metastasis-associated GPI-anchored proteins to increase tumour metastasis and intensified lipid raft formation, which consequently promoted the interaction between EGFR and ERBB2 as well as downstream pro-proliferative signalling. (PMID:31118109)
- GPAA1 promotes progression of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia through regulating c-myc. (PMID:32432756)
- A novel variant in GPAA1, encoding a GPI transamidase complex protein, causes inherited vascular anomalies with various phenotypes. (PMID:32533362)
- Structural modelling of the lumenal domain of human GPAA1, the metallo-peptide synthetase subunit of the transamidase complex, reveals zinc-binding mode and two flaps surrounding the active site. (PMID:32993792)
- Subunits of the GPI transamidase complex localize to the endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope in Drosophila. (PMID:33496978)
