Structural basis for substrate specificity and catalysis of α1,6-fucosyltransferase
Core-fucosylation of the N-glycan core is an essential biological modification and the α1,6- fucosyltransferase FUT8 is the only enzyme in humans that catalyses this modification through the addition of an α-1,6-linked fucose to N-glycans.
