Mucin 4, also known as MUC4, is a mucin protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC4 gene.
Like other mucins, Mucin 4 is a high-molecular weight glycoprotein.
It is mapped to 3q29.
In normal functioning, Mucin 4 is known to play anti-adhesive roles in the body, such as in lubricating the reproductive lining.
It is found in the respiratory tract, particularly in the trachea and lung and the digestive tract, in the esophagus and colon, as well as in the visual and auditory systems.
Mucin 4 serves to protect and lubricate the epithelium, which facilitates transport and traps foreign particles.
It is found to be overexpressed during the luteal phase of menstruation.
Mucin 4 may also have a role in fetal morphogenic development.
