http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/8755920http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"About 20%-25% of Caucasian individuals are nonsecretors who fail to express soluble A, B, H, and Lewis b histo-blood group antigens in secretory organs and secretory fluids because of the absence of the Secretor gene (FUT2)-encoded alpha(1,2)-fucosyltransferase (Se enzyme) activity. Recently, the FUT2 and a pseudogene have been isolated, and an Se enzyme-deficient allele (se) caused by a nonsense mutation (G428A, se1) in Caucasians has also been reported. Although we were unable to find the se1 allele, we have found a missense mutation (A385T, se2) and two nonsense mutations (C571T, se3 and C628T, se4) in the Japanese Se enzyme-deficient alleles. In addition, we have found a fusion gene, which consisted of the 5'-region of the pseudogene and the 3'-region of the functional FUT2, as a Se enzyme-deficient allele (se5). The DNA sequence analysis of the fusion gene indicated that the crossover region corresponded to regions between bases 253 and 313 of the pseudogene and between bases 211 and 271 of the FUT2. This finding suggested that the fusion gene was generated by homologous but unequal crossover. A population study on 141 randomly selected Japanese has indicated that the se2 is a common Se enzyme-deficient allele in the Japanese population. The results suggest that Se enzyme-deficient alleles are race specific."xsd:string
