Description
Product Characteristics: Fut1, fucosyltransferase 1 (galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase, H blood group), H, HH, HSC, 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase, GDP-L-fucose:beta-D-galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 1, alpha (1,2) fucosyltransferase, alpha(1,2)FT 1, blood group H alpha 2-fucosyltransferase, fucosyltransferase 1 (galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase), galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 1
Target Information: 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
