Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for efficiently producing a fucose-containing carbohydrate by using a protein associated with transport of a fucose-containing carbohydrate and a microorganism having an ability to produce the protein. The present invention relates to any one protein of [1] a protein consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or 4, [2] a mutant protein having a transporting activity for a fucose-containing carbohydrate and consisting of an amino acid sequence in which 1 to 20 amino acids are deleted, substituted, inserted, or added in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or 4, and [3] a homologous protein having a transporting activity for a fucose-containing carbohydrate and consisting of an amino acid sequence having an identity of 90% or more with the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 or 4.
