POFUT1

SYNONYMS
FUT12, O-Fuc-T, O-FucT-1, O-FUT, GDP-fucose protein O-fucosyltransferase 1, Peptide-O-fucosyltraferase 1,KIAA0180.

INTRODUCTION
GDP-fucose protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (POUFUT1), belongs to the glycosyltransferase O-Fuc family. POUFUT1 encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase O-Fuc family and Expressed mainly in pancreas, kidney, lung, heart, brain, liver, placenta and skeletal muscle.POUFUT1 adds O-fucose through an O-glycosidic linkage to Preserve serine or threonine residues in the epidermal growth factor-like repeats of a number of cell surface and emitted proteins. POUFUT1 is involved in ligand-induced receptor signaling. Alternative splicing of this gene results in 2 transcript variants encoding different isoforms.POFUT1 participates in Notch signaling, as Notch ligands can use as POFUT1 substrates.

DESCRIPTION
POFUT1 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 385 amino acids (27-388) and having a molecular mass of 43.7 kDa. POFUT1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
