GlycoErase™ HEK293F-ΔFUT8 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0425-JF281)

Description	This FUT8 knockout (HEK293F) cell line lacks the FUT8 protein, a fucosyltransferase 8. This gene encodes an enzyme belonging to the family of fucosyltransferases. The product of this gene catalyzes the transfer of fucose from GDP-fucose to N-linked type complex glycans. Loss of FUT8 function may disrupt core fucosylation of N-glycans.
