About Fut8

Summary

Predicted to enable glycoprotein 6-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in GDP-L-fucose metabolic process; N-glycan fucosylation; and protein N-linked glycosylation via asparagine. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including N-glycan processing; cell surface receptor signaling pathway; and regulation of cellular response to oxidative stress. Predicted to be located in Golgi cisterna membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Orthologous to human FUT8 (fucosyltransferase 8).
