Product details

The protein encoded by this gene is a Golgi stack membrane protein that is involved in the creation of a precursor of the H antigen, which is required for the final step in the soluble A and B antigen synthesis pathway. This gene is one of two encoding the galactoside 2-L-fucosyltransferase enzyme. Mutations in this gene are a cause of the H-Bombay blood group.

Supplementary information

Galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 1 also known as FUT1 is an enzyme that plays a role in the addition of fucose a hexose sugar to galactose residues on glycoconjugates. FUT1 has a molecular weight of approximately 44 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues including the liver gastrointestinal tract and endothelial cells indicating a broad functional presence. By transferring fucose in an alpha-12 linkage FUT1 modifies glycoproteins and glycolipids impacting their structure and function.
Biological function summary

FUT1 contributes to the synthesis of H antigen a precursor for ABO blood group antigens by adding fucose to galactoside. It does not usually function as part of a larger protein complex but can have interaction with other components of the glycosylation machinery to ensure proper cellular glycan composition. The action of FUT1 influences cell-cell adhesion signaling and the immune response by shaping cell surface glycan landscapes.

Pathways

FUT1 participates in glycosylation pathways critical for proper cellular recognition and signaling. It plays an important role in the glycosphingolipid biosynthesis pathway that involves the synthesis of the H antigen important for blood group antigen formation. In these pathways FUT1 works in conjunction with other fucosyltransferase family members like FUT2 jointly contributing to the overall diversity of glycan structures found on the cell surface.

FUT1 has implications in several conditions due to its role in glycosylation. Abnormal expression levels can influence the development of certain cancers where altered glycosylation patterns contribute to cell metastasis and immune evasion. Additionally FUT1 modifications could affect the susceptibility to infections by pathogens that recognize specific glycan structures. FUT1's role in cancer is often examined in connection with proteins related to cell adhesion and the immune system such as selectins which interact with glycan structures for cell trafficking and immune response regulation.

Target data

Catalyzes the transfer of L-fucose, from a guanosine diphosphate-beta-L-fucose, to the terminal galactose residue of glycoconjugates through an alpha(1,2) linkage leading to H antigen synthesis that is an intermediate substrate in the synthesis of ABO blood group antigens (PubMed : 2118655). H antigen is essential for maturation of the glomerular layer of the main olfactory bulb, in cell migration and early cell-cell contacts during tumor associated angiogenesis (PubMed : 18205178). Preferentially fucosylates soluble lactose and to a lesser extent fucosylates glycolipids gangliosides GA1 and GM1a (By similarity).
