General annotation (Comments)

Function

Creates a soluble precursor oligosaccharide FuC-alpha ((1,2)Galbeta-) called the H antigen which is an essential substrate for the final step in the soluble A and B antigen synthesis pathway. H and Se enzymes fucosylate the same acceptor substrates but exhibit different Km values.

Catalytic activity

GDP-beta-L-fucose + beta-D-galactosyl-(1->3)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->3)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucosyl-(1<->1)-ceramide = GDP + alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->2)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->3)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->3)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucosyl-(1<->1)-ceramide.

Pathway

Protein modification; protein glycosylation.

Subcellular location

Golgi apparatusGolgi stack membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Note: Membrane-bound form in trans cisternae of Golgi.

Polymorphism

Nonfunctional mutant of FUT1 are the cause of the H-Bombay blood group.

Miscellaneous

There are two genes (FUT1 and FUT2) which encode galactoside 2-L-fucosyltransferase. They are expressed in a tissue-specific manner with expression restricted to cells of mesodermal or endodermal origin respectively.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 11 family.
