QuickView for FUT6;jsessionid=7036D412F3EE2C5A7A9B46FA235E2E9C (gene)

Gene Symbol:

FUT6 Homo sapiens

Full name:

fucosyltransferase 6

Synonyms:

FCT3A, FT1A, Fuc-TVI, FucT-VI, alpha-(1,3)-fucosyltransferase 6, fucosyltransferase 6 (alpha (1,3) fucosyltransferase), fucosyltransferase VI, galactoside 3-L-fucosyltransferase

Genomic Location:

Chr 19: 5781637-5790742

Description:

The protein encoded by this gene is a Golgi stack membrane protein that is involved in the creation of sialyl-Lewis X, an E-selectin ligand. Mutations in this gene are a cause of fucosyltransferase-6 deficiency. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
