Description

fucosyltransferase 8

Gene Summary

Enables alpha-(1->6)-fucosyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including N-glycan fucosylation; N-glycan processing; and cell surface receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in Golgi cisterna membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Is expressed in telencephalon. Used to study pulmonary emphysema. Orthologous to human FUT8 (fucosyltransferase 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
