expression in Pichia pastoris GS115 cells Apis mellifera
expression in Sf9 cells Apis mellifera
the Apis mellifera genome encodes three alpha1,3-FucT homologues FucTA, FucTB and FucTC, expressed in yeast and insect cells only FucTA is found to be a core alpha1,3-FucT (EC 2.1.214), FucTC discloses to be the first Lewis-type alpha1,3-FucT (EC 2.4.1.152) to be described in insects, FucTB does not show any activity Apis mellifera
