Redundancy

edit

I would suggest a move of this article to the page on glycophosphatidylinositol. Gabemck 03:35, 28 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

This figure contributes nothing to this article, not even related. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.247.241.239 (talk) 05:21, 10 June 2010 (UTC)Reply


The figure is really misleading, or wrong: the clathrin is coated on the wrong side of the bud. I suggest to remove the figure.150.108.78.88 (talk) 16:41, 22 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Apart from its correctnes (which I cannot assert right now), the figure is beautiful. It does not, however, match the article. A structure of GPI anchor would be adequate, but this figure tells a different story. --AngelHerraez (talk) 16:09, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I have been WP:BOLD and removed it. Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty | Averted crashes 18:45, 7 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Typo

edit

There is a typo in the image. "Sphingolipid" is misspelled as "sphinogolipid." --Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty | Averted crashes 11:55, 25 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Structure

edit

Could someone add an image, ideally also explaining the components of the GPI? It is a common exam question and may also be of relevant to the casual visitor to see the overall structure of the GPI itself. 80.110.94.18 (talk) 23:12, 16 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

GPI facing which side of the cell membrane?

edit

The GPI anchor faces which side of the cell membrane? I assume from the article that it remains inside of a cell, which would be logical. But it would be better to add this information to the article. 2A02:8388:1604:CA80:0:0:0:6 (talk) 00:21, 25 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
