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 cell surface receptor signaling pathway; fibroblast migration; and regulation of cellular response to oxidative stress. Predicted to be located in Golgi cisterna membrane. Orthologous to human FUT8 (fucosyltransferase 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
