General annotation (Comments)

Function

Required for normal morphogenesis and development. Catalyzes the reaction that attaches fucose through an O-glycosidic linkage to a conserved serine or threonine residue in thrombospondin type 1 repeats By similarity. Ref.1

Catalytic activity

Transfers an alpha-L-fucosyl residue from GDP-beta-L-fucose to the serine hydroxy group of a protein acceptor.

Pathway

Protein modification; protein glycosylation.

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in the anterior part of embryos, in the hypodermal and neuronal cells of the head. Expressed at different levels in a variety of cell types after hatching, including neuronal, hypodermal, muscle, intestinal, and somatic gonadal cells. Expressed in the nerve ring around the pharynx, in dorsal and ventral nerve cords, intestine, and a variety of hypodermal cells of L1-L3 larvae. Expressed in gonadal sheath cells, spermatheca, and tissues surrounding the vulva of adult hermaphrodites, and in the body wall muscle and hypodermal cells of adults of both sexes. Ref.1

Developmental stage

Expressed starts at morphogenetic embryonic stages and continues throughout development. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 68 family.
