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.
Mucin-1 is expressed on the apical surface of epithelial cells that line the mucosal surfaces of many different tissues including lung, breast stomach and pancreas.
Mucin-1 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 Mucin-1 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.
