Entrez ID 2528
Gene name Fucosyltransferase 6
Gene symbol FUT6
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
FCT3AFT1AFuc-TVIFucT-VI
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19p13.3
Summary 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 p
