Description

Alpha-(1,3)-fucosyltransferase fut-1

Gene Summary

Enables 3-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 4-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity and glycoprotein 3-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity. Involved in carbohydrate biosynthetic process and fucosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in chemosensory neurons; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; rectal valve cell; and retrovesicular ganglion. Orthologous to several human genes including FUT3 (fucosyltransferase 3 (Lewis blood group)); FUT5 (fucosyltransferase 5); and FUT6 (fucosyltransferase 6).
