Cleavage by the GPI-PLD provides definitive evidence of a minimal GPI structure: glucosamine-phosphatidylinositol. Unlike the case for PI-PLC, cleavage by the GPI-PLD is unaffected by acylation of the inositol ring. Thus the GPI-PLD provides an excellent simple enzymatic tool for analyzing the basic core structure of GPI anchors.
糖基磷脂酰肌醇特异性磷脂酶D（GPI-PLD）的切割提供了关于最小GPI结构（葡糖胺-磷脂酰肌醇）的确切证据。与磷脂酰肌醇特异性磷脂酶C（PI-PLC）的情况不同，GPI-PLD的切割不受肌醇环酰化的影响。因此，GPI-PLD为分析GPI锚定物的基本核心结构提供了一种出色且简单的酶学工具。
