| Cat# | DIA-708 |
| Descriptions | Fucosyltransferase 5 (FUT5) is an α-1,3 fucosyltransferase that acts on N-acetyllactosamine acceptors to form Lewis x structures, exhibits distinct tissue expression patterns, and supports research on cell adhesion and developmental glycosylation regulation. |
| Applications | Fucosyltransferase 5 (FUT5) is suitable for Lewis x antigen detection kits and cell adhesion related assay reagent development. |

| Enzyme Commission Number | EC 2.4.1.65 |
| Enzyme Source | Trichoplusia ni, High Five (baculovirus)-derived human Fucosyltransferase 5/FUT5 protein. |
| Reaction | a beta-D-galactosyl- (1->3)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl derivative + GDP-beta-L-fucose = a beta-D-galactosyl- (1->3)-[alpha-L-fucosyl- (1->4)]-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl derivative + GDP + H+ |
| Activity Definition | Measured by its ability to transfer fucose from GDP-fucose to N-Acetyllactosamine. |
