FUT8 - fucosyltransferase 8 Gene

Also Known as CDGF; CDGF1

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 2530

About FUT8

Cytogenetic location: 14q23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:65,356,842-65,744,121 (from NCBI)

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.
