Anti-Galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 1 antibody,Abcam,AB198712

The protein encoded by this gene is a Golgi stack membrane protein that is involved in the creation of a precursor of the H antigen, which is required for the final step in the soluble A and B antigen synthesis pathway. This gene is one of two encoding the galactoside 2-L-fucosyltransferase enzyme. Mutations in this gene are a cause of the H-Bombay blood group.

Scientific Background

Target data Catalyzes the transfer of L-fucose, from a guanosine diphosphate-beta-L-fucose, to the terminal galactose residue of glycoconjugates through an alpha(1,2) linkage leading to H antigen synthesis that is an intermediate substrate in the synthesis of ABO blood group antigens (PubMed : 2118655). H antigen is essential for maturation of the glomerular layer of the main olfactory bulb, in cell migration and early cell-cell contacts during tumor associated angiogenesis (PubMed : 18205178). Preferentially fucosylates soluble lactose and to a lesser extent fucosylates glycolipids gangliosides GA1 and GM1a (By similarity). See full target information FUT1
