Gene: FUT1

Alternate names for this Gene: H|HH|HSC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a Golgi stack membrane protein that is involved in the creation of a precursor of the H antigen, which is required for the final step in the synthesis of soluble A and B antigens. This is one of two genes encoding the galactoside 2-L-fucosyltransferase enzyme. Mutations in this gene are a cause of the H-Bombay blood group.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19q13.33

Description of this Gene: fucosyltransferase 1 (H blood group)

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: IZUMO1

Alternate names for this Gene: IZUMO|OBF

Gene Summary: The sperm-specific protein Izumo, named for a Japanese shrine dedicated to marriage, is essential for sperm-egg plasma membrane binding and fusion (Inoue et al., 2005 [PubMed 15759005]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008].
