Human Mucin-4 / MUC4 ELISA Kit

The principal components of mucus, the viscous secretion that covers epithelial surfaces such as those in the trachea, colon, and cervix, are mucins, which are highly glycosylated proteins.The mucins serve as structural proteins that provide structural support to the epithelial cells. They have been linked to epithelial regeneration and maturation. Mucin-4/MUC4 is a membrane glycoprotein that is present on the cell surface, although secreted variants may exist. At least twenty-two transcript variants of this gene have been discovered, but the full length transcript has not been identified for many of them, and they are only found in tumor tissues. Filamentary Keratitis and Biliary Tract Cancer are examples of MUC4-related diseases.
