STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

FUT6Alpha-(1,3)-fucosyltransferase 6; Enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of the E-Selectin ligand, sialyl-Lewis X. Catalyzes the transfer of fucose from GDP-beta-fucose to alpha-2,3 sialylated substrates (By similarity); Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 10 family. (365 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
FUT2
Galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 2; Mediates the transfer of fucose to the terminal galactose on glycan chains of cell surface glycoproteins and glycolipids. The resulting epitope plays a role in cell-cell interaction including host- microbe interaction. Mediates interaction with intestinal microbiota influencing its composition. 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 membrane-associated blood group antigen synthesis pathway.
