Background
POFUT2, C21orf80, FUT13, KIAA0958, GDP-fucose protein O-fucosyltransferase 2, Peptide-O-fucosyltransferase 2, O-FucT-2Fucose is typically found as a terminal modification of branched chain glycoconjugates, but it also exists in direct O-linkage to serine or threonine residues within cystine knot motifs in epidermal growth factor (EGF, MIM 131530)-like repeats or thrombospondin (THBS, see MIM 188060) type-1 repeats. POFUT2 is an O-fucosyltransferase that use THBS type-1 repeats as substrates (Luo et al. 2006 [PubMed 16464857]).
