Important Note	This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications.
Background Descriptions	Creates a soluble precursor oligosaccharide FuC-alpha ((1,2)Galbeta-) called the H antigen which is an essential substrate for the final step in the soluble A and B antigen synthesis pathway. H and Se enzymes fucosylate the same acceptor substrates but exhibit different Km values. FUT2 is expressed on the surface of several human tumor cell lines such as BEL-7404, SPC-A-1, and SGC-7901.

Protein Information
Name	FUT2 (HGNC:4013)
Synonyms	SEC2
Function	Catalyzes the transfer of L-fucose, from a guanosine diphosphate-beta-L-fucose, to the terminal galactose on both O- and N- linked glycans chains of cell surface glycoproteins and glycolipids and the resulting epitope regulates several processes such as cell-cell interaction including host-microbe interaction, cell surface expression and cell proliferation (PubMed:12692541, PubMed:7876235, PubMed:8018146). Preferentially fucosylates gangliosides GA1 and GM1 in the antrum, cecum and colon and in the female reproductive organs (By similarity). Fucosylated host glycoproteins or glycolipids mediate interaction with intestinal microbiota influencing its composition (PubMed:21625510, PubMed:22068912, PubMed:24733310). Creates a soluble precursor oligosaccharide FuC-alpha ((1,2)Galbeta-) called the H antigen which is an essential substrate for the final step in the soluble ABO blood group antigen synthesis pathway (PubMed:7876235).
