General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the addition of fucose in alpha 1-6 linkage to the first GlcNAc residue, next to the peptide chains in N-glycans By similarity.

Catalytic activity

GDP-beta-L-fucose + N(4)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->3)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->6))-beta-D-mannosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl)asparagine = GDP + N(4)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->3)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->6))-beta-D-mannosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->4)-(alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->6))-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl)asparagine.

Pathway
