Fucose is a
hexose deoxy sugar with the
chemical formula C6H12O5. It is
found on N-linked
glycans on the mammalian,
insect and
plant cell surface. Fucose...
- In enzymology, a L-
fucose isomerase (EC 5.3.1.25) is an
enzyme that
catalyzes the
chemical reaction L-
fucose ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } L-fuculose...
- ATP + L-
fucose ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } ADP + beta-L-
fucose 1-phosphate Thus, the two
substrates of this
enzyme are ATP and L-
fucose, whereas...
- carbohydrates,
exceptions exist. For instance,
uronic acids and deoxy-sugars like
fucose deviate from this
precise stoichiometric definition. Conversely, some compounds...

- The term "hexose"
sometimes is ****umed to
include deoxyhexoses, such as
fucose and rhamnose:

-
fucosyltransferase is an
enzyme that
transfers an L-

fucose)
donor substrate to an
acceptor substrate. The...
