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

FUT6Galactoside 3(4)-L-fucosyltransferase; May catalyze alpha-1,3 and alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages involved in the expression of sialyl Lewis X and Lewis X/SSEA-1 antigens. It may be involved in blood group Lewis determination. Also acts on the corresponding 1,4-galactosyl derivative, forming 1,3-L- fucosyl links. (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.
   
 
 0.989
FUT1
L-Fucosyltransferase; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 11 family.
   
 
 0.989
B3GNT3
Hexosyltransferase.
   
 
 0.968
ST3GAL6
Type 2 lactosamine alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase; Involved in the synthesis of sialyl-paragloboside, a precursor of sialyl-Lewis X determinant. Has a alpha-2,3- sialyltransferase activity toward Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc structure on glycoproteins and glycolipids. Has a restricted substrate specificity, it utilizes Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc on glycoproteins, and neolactotetraosylceramide and neolactohexaosylceramide, but not lactotetraosylceramide, lactosylceramide or asialo-GM1 (By similarity). Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 29 family.
     
 0.963
B4GALT1
Processed beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 1; The Golgi complex form catalyzes the production of lactose in the lactating mammary gland and could also be responsible for the synthesis of complex-type N-linked oligosaccharides in many glycoproteins as well as the carbohydrate moieties of glycolipids; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 7 family.
   
 
 0.960
B4GALT4
Beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 4.
     
 0.954
SEC1
L-Fucosyltransferase; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 11 family.
   
 
 0.944
B3GNT2
Hexosyltransferase.
   
 
 0.933
ST8SIA1
Alpha-N-acetylneuraminide alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase; Involved in the production of gangliosides GD3 and GT3 from GM3; gangliosides are a subfamily of complex glycosphinglolipds that contain one or more residues of sialic acid.
     
 0.931
GCNT2
Glucosaminyl (N-acetyl) transferase 2 (I blood group).
     
 0.929
