Galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FUT2 gene. [5] [6] It affects the secretor status of ABO antigens. [7]

2024年12月25日 · FUT2 (Fucosyltransferase 2 (H Blood Group)) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with FUT2 include Vitamin B12 Plasma Level Quantitative Trait Locus 1 and Bombay Phenotype. Among its related pathways are superpathway of glycosphingolipids biosynthesis and Sphingolipid metabolism.

2016年2月9日 · The FUT2 gene secretions influence the kind and amount of beneficial bacteria that grow in the digestive tract. The main type affected bifidobacteria , which are probiotics that promote health throughout the entire body – bolstering immunity, managing inflammation, and maintaining a healthy gut flora balance.

2021年2月25日 · Are you a blood type (A, B, AB, or O) secretor or non-secretor? Discover the benefits and risks of this FUT2 gene variant. Check your genetic raw data.

In human, FUT2 gene encodes an enzyme known as Galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase 2 which is responsible for secretor status of ABO antigens . Other names for FUT2 are B12QTL1, SE, Se2, SEC2, and sej . The size of FUT2 gene is 9,980 bases with Plus strand orientation and, present on chromosome 19q13.33.

Recent research has identified a key gene that influences gut bacteria in a major way. This gene is known as FUT2, or fucosyltransferase 2. Genetic mutations in FUT2 has shown to be a link towards decreases in bifidobacterium, a key, beneficial microbial colony that lines the gut.

2020年10月8日 · The FucosylTransferase 2 (FUT2) gene is associated with the synthesis of fucosyltransferase 2. This enzyme found to attach the bacterium Helicobacter pylori to the gastric mucosa, which affects the absorption of vitamin B12 in the gut.

2018年5月30日 · Background: The FUT2 (fucosyltransferase-2) gene determines blood group secretor status. Being homozygous for the inactive “non-secretor” rs601338(A) allele confers resistance to certain infections (e.g. Norovirus, Rotavirus) and susceptibility to ...

FUT2 Facilitates Autophagy and Suppresses Apoptosis via p53 and JNK Signaling in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells. Maternal and child FUT2 and FUT3 status demonstrate relationship with gut health, body composition and growth of children in Bangladesh.

The fucosyltransferase 2 gene (FUT2) mediates the synthesis of histoblood group antigens (HBGA) that occur in vivo from multiple organs, particularly on the surface of intestinal epithelial cells and body fluids. To date, many studies have ...
