Abstract
The last step in the biosynthesis of Le(x) antigen, the addition of a fucose to precursor polysaccharides, can be catalyzed by different alpha-3-fucosyltransferases. We localized the gene (FUT4) encoding myeloid alpha-3-fucosyltransferase by PCR assay using panels of somatic cell and radiation hybrids which retain different rearrangements of chromosome 11. FUT4 was assigned to chromosome band 11q21 between D11S388 and D11S919.Entities:
