Description
MUC1 Antibody (PACO20981)
The MUC1 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC020981) is a valuable tool for researchers studying MUC1, a membrane-bound glycoprotein that is overexpressed in various cancers, including breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer. This antibody, raised in rabbits, is highly specific for human samples and is validated for use in Western blot and immunohistochemistry applications.MUC1 plays a key role in tumor progression and metastasis, making it a promising target for cancer therapy and diagnostics. The MUC1 Polyclonal Antibody binds to the MUC1 protein, allowing for its detection and analysis in cancer cells and tissues.
Its high specificity and sensitivity make it an essential tool for researchers investigating the role of MUC1 in cancer development and progression.Furthermore, the MUC1 Polyclonal Antibody can also be used in studies focusing on other MUC1-associated diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease and respiratory infections. By understanding the function and regulation of MUC1, researchers can potentially develop novel therapeutic approaches that target MUC1 signaling pathways in disease settings.

Background: | This gene encodes a membrane-bound protein that is a member of the mucin family. Mucins are O-glycosylated proteins that play an essential role in forming protective mucous barriers on epithelial surfaces. These proteins also play a role in intracellular signaling. This protein is expressed on the apical surface of epithelial cells that line the mucosal surfaces of many different tissues including lung, breast stomach and pancreas. This protein is proteolytically cleaved into α and β subunits that form a heterodimeric complex. The N-terminal α subunit functions in cell-adhesion and the C-terminal β subunit is involved in cell signaling. Overexpression, aberrant intracellular localization, and changes in glycosylation of this protein have been associated with carcinomas. This gene is known to contain a highly polymorphic variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) domain. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. |
Synonyms: | mucin 1, cell surface associated |
UniProt Protein Function: | MUC1: a large cell surface glycoprotein expressed by most glandular and ductal epithelial cells and some hematopoietic cell lineages. Plays a role in adhesion and cell-cell interactions, metastasis and signaling. May provide a protective layer on epithelial surfaces. Direct or indirect interaction with actin cytoskeleton. Its cytoplasmic tail (MUC1CT) is involved in several signaling pathways, including those involving Ras, beta-catenin, p120 catenin, p53 and estrogen receptor alpha. MUC1CT also forms complexes with transcription factors, and then translocates to the nucleus by an unknown mechanism, where it is believed to influence the transcription of their target genes. MUC1CT has also been proposed to localize to mitochondrial membranes under conditions of genotoxic stress, where it attenuates the apoptotic pathway in response and confers resistance to apoptosis-inducing drugs. Aberrantly glycosylated forms expressed in human epithelial tumors, such as breast or ovarian cancer and also in non-epithelial tumor cells. Nine alternatively spliced isoforms have been described. Isoforms 5 and 9 are secreted. Isoform 7, expressed only in tumor cells, is a receptor and binds the secreted isoform 5. The binding induces the phosphorylation of the isoform 7, alters cellular morphology and initiates cell signaling. Can bind to GRB2 adapter protein. |
