Mucin 1, cell surface associated (MUC1) or polymorphic epithelial mucin (PEM) is a mucin encoded by the MUC1 gene in humans.
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.
It is mapped to 1q22.
Mucin 1 is a transmembrane mucin normally expressed on the apical borders of secretory epithelial cells.
Overexpression of Mucin 1 is often associated with colon, breast, ovarian, lung and pancreatic cancers.
The protein serves a protective function by binding to pathogens and also functions in a cell signaling capacity.
Mucin 1 stimulated ESR1-mediated transcription and contributed to estradiol-mediated growth and survival of breast cancer cells.
This gene also can suppress pulmonary innate immunity, and its anti-inflammatory activity may play an important modulatory role during microbial infection.
