Representative structures and synthetic pathways of GIPC sugar headgroups in plants. The first (Ins) and second (GlcA) carbohydrate residues are conserved in plants, but the third residue (Hex, HexN, or HexNAc) is variable in plant tissues/species. This study identifies the (N-acetyl)hexosamine-specific transferase GINT1. IPCS, inositolphosphorylceramide synthase (ceramide phosphoinosityl transferase); IPUT1, inositolphosphorylceramide glucuronosyl transferase; GMT1, GIPC mannosyl transferase; P, phosphate group; Ins, inositol; Cer, ceramide.
