Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Glycosylation enzyme**: LFNG is a 3-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of fucose to specific carbohydrate moieties, leading to the formation of O-fucosylated peptides. 2. **Cell-specific expression**: LFNG is highly expressed in various cell types, including immune cells, endothelial cells, and neural cells, suggesting its involvement in multiple biological processes. 3. **Functional specificity**: LFNG exhibits specificity for certain carbohydrate moieties, which are involved in cell-cell interactions and signaling pathways. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Notch signaling pathway**: LFNG is involved in the regulation of the Notch signaling pathway, which plays a critical role in cell fate decisions, cell differentiation, and tissue development. 2. **Cell differentiation**: LFNG is required for the proper differentiation of immune cells, including T cells and B cells, and neural cells, such as GABAergic interneurons. 3. **Cell signaling**: LFNG is involved in the regulation of various cell signaling pathways, including the Notch, Wnt, and PI3K/AKT pathways. 4. **Developmental biology**: LFNG is required for the proper development of various tissues and organs, including the kidney, heart, and brain. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Diseases associated with O-fucosylation**: Mutations in the LFNG gene have been associated with several diseases, including scdo3, a developmental disorder characterized by abnormal somitogenesis and osteogenesis. 2. **Immune system dysfunction**: LFNG deficiency has been linked to impaired immune system function, including abnormal T cell and B cell development. 3. **Cancer**: LFNG has been implicated in the regulation of cancer cell behavior, including cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. 4. **Neurological disorders**: LFNG has been linked to various neurological disorders, including autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. In conclusion, the LFNG gene plays a crucial role in regulating various biological processes, including immunology, development, and disease. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms by which LFNG influences these processes and to explore its potential therapeutic applications.
