FUT6
Enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the E-Selectin ligand, sialyl-Lewis X. Catalyzes the transfer of fucose from GDP- beta-fucose to alpha-2,3 sialylated substrates. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 10 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
