Effects of L-fucose supplementation on the viability of cancer cell lines
Makara Journal of Health Research, 2020 Background: Fucose is a deoxyhexose sugar. While the biological roles of L-fucose remain unclear, the sugar is known to accelerate the malignant potential of cancer cells.

Developing a Fluorescent Inducible System for Free Fucose Quantification in Escherichia coli
Biosensors, 2023 L-Fucose is a monosaccharide abundant in mammalian glycoconjugates. In humans, fucose can be found in human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), mucins, and glycoproteins in the intestinal epithelium.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2022 Mutations in the SLC35C1 gene encoding the Golgi GDP-fucose transporter are known to cause leukocyte adhesion deficiency II. However, improvement of fucosylation in leukocyte adhesion deficiency II patients treated with exogenous fucose suggests the existence of an SLC35C1-independent route of GDP-fucose transport, which remains a mystery.

Pathogenic Variants in Fucokinase Cause a Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation [PDF]
, 2018 FUK encodes fucokinase, the only enzyme capable of converting L-fucose to fucose-1-phosphate, which will ultimately be used for synthesizing GDP-fucose, the donor substrate for all fucosyltransferases.

The role of the mobile proton in fucose migration [PDF]
, 2019 Fucose migration reactions represent a substantial challenge in the analysis of fucosylated glycan structures by mass spectrometry. In addition to the well-established observation of transposed fucose residues in glycan-dissociation product ions, recent ...

Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of Escherichia coli for Efficient Fermentation of L-Fucose
Marine Drugs, 2019 L-Fucose, one of the major monomeric sugars in brown algae, possesses high potential for use in the large-scale production of bio-based products. Although fucose catabolic pathways have been enzymatically evaluated, the effects of fucose as a carbon ...

Assessment of serum fucose level among oral squamous cell carcinoma patients: A case-control study
Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2023 Background: Serum glycoproteins, which are made up of various monosaccharides, are altered in malignancy, a disorder of cellular conduct. L-fucose, a methyl pentose that serves as the last sugar in the majority of plasma glycoproteins, is one of the ...
