Galactoside 3(4)-L-fucosyltransferase; Blood group Lewis alpha-4-fucosyltransferase; Lewis FT; Fucosyltransferase 3; FucT-III
Categories
Primary Antibodies
Clonality
polyclonal
Description
May catalyze alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages involved in the expression of Vim-2, Lewis A, Lewis B, sialyl Lewis X and Lewis X/SSEA-1 antigens. May be involved in blood group Lewis determination; Lewis-positive (Le+) individuals have an active enzyme while Lewis-negative (Le-) individuals have an inactive enzyme. Also acts on the corresponding 1,4-galactosyl derivative, forming 1,3-L-fucosyl links.Kukowska-Latallo J.F., Genes Dev. 4:1288-1303(1990).Cameron H.S., J. Biol.
