Summary: Enables 4-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 3-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including Lewis x epitope biosynthetic process; N-glycan fucosylation; and neuronal stem cell division. Acts upstream of or within protein glycosylation. Located in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in central nervous system and urinary system. Orthologous to human FUT9 (fucosyltransferase 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
