Mucin-20 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC20 gene. This protein is a mucin, which are a family of proteins which are a component of mucus
tissues in most animals. Mucins are distinguished between membrane-bound mucins, forming the glycocalyx, or secreted mucins, forming mucus-gels. These
Mucin-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC7 gene. Mucin 7 is one of the main mucins secreted into saliva. Unlike mucin 5B, one of the other
Mucin short variant S1, also called polymorphic epithelial mucin (PEM) or epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), is a mucin encoded by the MUC1 gene in humans
Bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM) coatings are a surface treatment provided to biomaterials intended to reduce the growth of disadvantageous bacteria and
Mucin-16 (MUC-16) also known as Ovarian cancer-related tumor marker CA125 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC16 gene. MUC-16 is a member
Mucin-1 (MUC-1) is a heterodimer transmembrane protein of the mucin family encoded in humans by the MUC1 gene. It is cleaved into two chains: mucin-1
malignant transformation. There are two main histological types: microvesicular mucin-rich type and goblet cell-rich type, which have genetic and structural differences
epithelial cells that secrete gel-forming mucins, like mucin 2 in the lower gastrointestinal tract, and mucin 5AC in the respiratory tract. The goblet
