DIA-706 |
| Descriptions |
Fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) catalyzes α-1,2 fucosylation of terminal galactose residues to form H blood group antigens on secretory mucins, determines the human secretor phenotype, and is essential for synthesizing histo-blood group antigens and studying host-microbe interactions. |
| Applications |
Fucosyltransferase 2 (FUT2) is applied in secretor phenotype detection kits and histo-blood group antigen assay reagent development. |

| Enzyme Source |
Human embryonic kidney cell, HEK293-derived human Fucosyltransferase 2/FUT2 protein. |
| Reaction |
a beta-D-galactosyl- (1->3)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl derivative + GDP-beta-L-fucose = an alpha-L-Fuc- (1->2)-beta-D-Gal- (1->3)-beta-D-GlcNAc derivative + GDP + H+ |
| Activity Definition |
Measured by its ability to transfer fucose from GDP-fucose to lactose. |
