GlycoErase™ FUT6 Knockout A549 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0425-JF535)

Description	FUT6 knockout A549 cell line lacks FUT6 protein, fucosyltransferase 6, crucial for sialyl-Lewis X synthesis, an E-selectin ligand. FUT6 knockout in A549 cells can be used to investigate sialyl-Lewis X's role in lung cancer, potentially affecting cell adhesion, metastasis, and E-selectin-mediated tumor-endothelial interactions.
