|
| Function |
Transfers a fucose to lacto-N-neotetraose but not to either alpha2,3-sialyl lacto-N-neotetraose or lacto-N-tetraose. Can catalyze the last step in the biosynthesis of Lewis antigen, the addition of a fucose to precursor polysaccharides. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9756916}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Golgi apparatus, Golgi stack membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Membrane-bound form in trans cisternae of Golgi. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Mainly detected in brain and kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9756916}.
