FUT2 - fucosyltransferase 2 Gene
Also Known as SE; Se2; sej; SEC2; B12QTL1
Species: Homo sapiens
About FUT2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 110 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 17.4), stomach (RPKM 16.4) and 11 other tissues.
Summary
This gene is one of two encoding the galactoside 2-L-fucosyltransferase enzyme. The encoded protein is important for the final step in the soluble ABO blood group antigen synthesis pathway. It is also involved in cell-cell interaction, cell surface expression, and cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene are a cause of the H-Bombay blood group where red blood cells lack the H antigen.
