Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
17329366 O-fut1 is an extracellular component that is essential for the constitutive endocytic trafficking of Notch in Drosophila.
12909620 Down-regulation of OFUT1 by RNA interference in Notch-secreting cells inhibits both Delta-Notch and Serrate-Notch binding, demonstrating a requirement for O-linked fucose for efficient binding of Notch to its ligands
15692013 OFUT1 has a distinct Notch chaperone activity; binds to Notch; required for the trafficking of wild-type Notch out of the endoplasmic reticulum; ability to facilitate folding of Notch
12526814 that OFUT1 is a core component of the Notch pathway, which is required for the activation of Notch by its ligands, and whose regulation may contribute to the pattern of Notch activation during development
