MUC1 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 alpha and beta subunits that form a heterodimeric complex. The N-terminal alpha subunit functions in cell-adhesion and the C-terminal beta subunit is involved in cell signaling. Overexpression, aberrant intracellular localization, and changes in glycosylation of this protein have been associated with carcinomas. MUC1 is known to contain a highly polymorphic variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) domain. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

MUC1 identifies mucin 1, cell surface associated in Homo sapiens (Human). This target record connects NCBI Gene 4582, UniProtKB P15941 and related ABMIUM catalogue products.
Biological function: Mucin 1 (MUC1; CD227/EMA/CA15-3) is a heavily glycosylated type I transmembrane mucin expressed on the apical surface of many glandular and epithelial cells. It contributes to epithelial surface protection and lubrication and also participates in cell signalling and adhesion.
