Fut4 - fucosyltransferase 4 Gene

Also Known as FAL; LeX; CD15; Ssea1; SSEA-1; FucT-IV

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 14345

Summary

Predicted to enable 4-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 3-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity. Involved in positive regulation of leukocyte tethering or rolling. Located in cell periphery and cell surface. Is expressed in several structures, including ear; embryo ectoderm; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and gut. Orthologous to human FUT4 (fucosyltransferase 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
