A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 2.4.1.68

Accepted Name
Glycoprotein 6-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase.
Alternative Name(s)
GDP-fucose--glycoprotein fucosyltransferase.
GDP-L-Fuc:N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide alpha(1->6)fucosyltransferase.
GDP-L-fucose-glycoprotein fucosyltransferase.
Glycoprotein fucosyltransferase.
Guanosine diphosphofucose-glycoprotein fucosyltransferase.
Reaction catalysed
GDP-beta-L-fucose + N(4)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->3)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->6))-beta-D-mannosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl)asparagine <=> GDP + N(4)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->3)-(N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->2)-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->6))-beta-D-mannosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl-(1->4)-(alpha-L-fucosyl-(1->6))-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl)asparagine
Comment(s)
Catalyzes a reaction similar to that of EC 2.4.1.214, but transfers the L-fucosyl group from GDP-beta-L-fucose to form an alpha-1,6- linkage rather than an alpha-1,3-linkage.
