Gene

fut-1

Species
Caenorhabditis elegans
Symbol
fut-1
Name
FUcosyl Transferase 1
Synonyms
  • CEFT-1
  • CELE_K08F8.3
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
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).
WB Description
fut-1 encodes a functional fucosyl transferase; evidence from biophysical experiments indicates that FUT-1 is a golgi-localized glycosyltransferase.
