Blood group Lewis alpha-4-fucosyltransferase ; Lewis FT ; FUTB ; Fucosyltransferase 3 ; Fucosyltransferase III ; FucT-III
Categories
Elisa
Function
May catalyze alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages involved in the expression of sialyl Lewis X and Lewis X/SSEA-1 antigens. It may be involved in blood group Lewis determination. Also acts on the corresponding 1,4-galactosyl derivative, forming 1,3-L-fucosyl links.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Bovine Galactoside 3(4)-L-fucosyltransferase
Subcellular Location
Golgi apparatus Golgi stack membrane Single-pass type II membrane protein Membrane-bound form in trans cisternae of Golgi.
