FUT8 - fucosyltransferase 8 Gene
Also Known as CDGF; CDGF1
Species: Homo sapiens
About FUT8
This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 267 orthologues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in stomach (RPKM 6.3), brain (RPKM 5.7) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes an enzyme belonging to the family of fucosyltransferases. The product of this gene catalyzes the transfer of fucose from GDP-fucose to N-linked type complex glycopeptides. This enzyme is distinct from Other fucosyltransferases which catalyze alpha1-2, alpha1-3, and alpha1-4 fucose addition. The expression of this gene may contribute to the malignancy of Cancer cells and to their invasive and metastatic capabilities. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
