General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the reaction that attaches fucose through an O-glycosidic linkage to a conserved serine or threonine residue found in the consensus sequence C2-X(4,5)-[S/T]-C3 of EGF domains, where C2 and C3 are the second and third conserved cysteines. Specifically uses GDP-fucose as donor substrate and proper disulfide pairing of the substrate EGF domains is required for fucose transfer. Plays a crucial role in NOTCH signaling. Initial fucosylation of NOTCH by POFUT1 generates a substrate for FRINGE/RFNG, an acetylglucosaminyltransferase that can then extend the fucosylation on the NOTCH EGF repeats. This extended fucosylation is required for optimal ligand binding and canonical NOTCH signaling induced by DLL1 or JAGGED1. Fucosylates AGRN and determines its ability to cluster acetylcholine receptors (AChRs). Ref.1 Ref.8

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

Highly expressed in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Ref.1

Post-translational modification

N-glycosylated.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 68 family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=6 µM for F7 EGF domain Ref.1
