Metabolic labeling with [3H]sugars in vivo or [3H]sugar nucleotides in vitro of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor precursors in peripheral blood granulocytes and cultured T lymphocytes of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) patients showed a synthetic defect in the GPI-anchor. Among the GPI-anchor precursors, phosphatidylinositol (PI) was normally synthesized, while the synthesis of glucosaminylphosphatidylinositol (GlcN-PI) and subsequent mannosylation of GlcN-PI were inhibited in affected cells. The defect in the GPI-anchor synthesis in PNH is thus attributed to interrupted glycosylation at plural sites in the synthesis of the common carbohydrate structure of the anchor.
