Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene is a Golgi stack membrane protein that is involved in the creation of sialyl-Lewis X antigens. The encoded protein can direct the synthesis of the E-selectin-binding sialyl-Lewis X moiety. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Caenorhabditis elegans Enables 3-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 4-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity and glycoprotein 3-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity. Involved in carbohydrate biosynthetic process and fucosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Expressed in chemosensory neurons; pharyngeal-intestinal valve; rectal valve cell; and retrovesicular ganglion. Is an ortholog of human FUT3 (fucosyltransferase 3 (Lewis blood group)); FUT5 (fucosyltransferase 5); and FUT6 (fucosyltransferase 6).

Homo sapiens The Lewis histo-blood group system comprises a set of fucosylated glycosphingolipids that are synthesized by exocrine epithelial cells and circulate in body fluids. The glycosphingolipids function in embryogenesis, tissue differentiation, tumor metastasis, inflammation, and bacterial adhesion. They are secondarily absorbed to red blood cells giving rise to their Lewis phenotype. This gene is a member of the fucosyltransferase family, which catalyzes the addition of fucose to precursor polysaccharides in the last step of Lewis antigen biosynthesis. It encodes an enzyme with alpha(1,3)-fucosyltransferase and alpha(1,4)-fucosyltransferase activities. Mutations in this gene are responsible for the majority of Lewis antigen-negative phenotypes. Differences in the expression of this gene are associated with host susceptibility to viral infection. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

Homo sapiens The product of this gene transfers fucose to N-acetyllactosamine polysaccharides to generate fucosylated carbohydrate structures. It catalyzes the synthesis of the non-sialylated antigen, Lewis x (CD15). [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]

Caenorhabditis elegans Enables RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including establishment of mitotic spindle orientation; neuron differentiation involved in amphid sensory organ development; and regulation of cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including AB lineage cell; AWC-ON; M.dla; head; and somatic nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oculoauricular syndrome. Is an ortholog of human HMX1 (H6 family homeobox 1).

Homo sapiens This locus encodes a sulfotransferase protein. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the sulfation of a nonreducing N-acetylglucosamine residue, and may play a role in biosynthesis of 6-sulfosialyl Lewis X antigen. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable monoatomic cation channel activity. Involved in defecation. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism/dementia complex 1; cataract; and congenital stationary night blindness 1C. Is an ortholog of human TRPM1 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 1); TRPM3 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 3); and TRPM7 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 7).
