[3AS-13]【E】Dancing on the lipid raft, glycosylphosphatidylinositol(GPI)-anchor, an active player in signal transduction and genetic disorders

Fri. Nov 29, 2024 9:00 AM - 11:15 AM JST
Fri. Nov 29, 2024 12:00 AM - 2:15 AM UTC
Room 13(Fukuoka International Congress Center, 2F 204)
Organizer: Qi Zhang (University of Tsukuba), Toshihide Yamashita (Osaka University)
In recent years, many inherited GPI deficiency(IGD) patients have been discovered based on whole-exome sequencing technology. Current symposium will gather multidisciplinary scientists to discuss the latest research about GPI-anchor (a type of "sugar-fat" modification), including biosynthesis and modification of GPI-anchor in mammalian cells, the newly discovered roles of GPI protein, and the development of diagnosis and therapy strategy of IGD disease.
