MUC1 is a member of the mucin family and a membrane bound, glycosylated phosphoprotein.
The protein is anchored to the apical surface of many epithelia by a transmembrane domain, with the degree of glycosylation varying with cell type.
It also includes a 20aa variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) domain, with the number of repeats varying from 20 to 120 in different individuals.
The protein serves a protective function by binding to pathogens and also functions in a cell signaling capacity.
Overexpression, aberrant intracellular localization, and changes in glycosylation of this protein have been associated with carcinomas.
