Radical fringe homolog (Beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase radical fringe, O-fucosylpeptide-3-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, RFNG)
Description:
The Drosophila melanogaster 'fringe' gene is a secreted signaling protein that is involved in the formation of boundaries between groups of cells during development. It acts by modulating the activation of te Notch signal transduction pathway. A human radical fringe homolog was identified in 1997. There is evidence to show that radical fringe homolog may be involve in limb formation and in neurogenesis in humans. It is a glycosyltransferase that initiates the elongation of O-linked fucose residues attached to EGF-like repeats in the extracellular domain of Notch molecules. It is a single-pass type II membrane protein which localises to the golgi apparatus membrane. It belongs to the glycosyltransferase 31 family.
