MUC1 (or mucin 1) is aberrantly overexpressed in most human carcinomas. Increased expression of MUC1 in carcinomas reduces cell-cell and cell-ECM interactions. MUC1 is cleaved proteolytically, and the large ectodomain can remain associated with the small 25 kDa carboxy-terminal domain that contains a transmembrane segment and a 72-residue cytoplasmic tail (1). MUC1 interacts with ErbB family receptors and potentiates ERK1\/2 activation (2). MUC1 also interacts with Î²-catenin, which is regulated by GSK-3Î², PKCÎ³, and Src through phosphorylation at Ser44, Thr41, and Tyr46 of the MUC1 cytoplasmic tail (3-5). Overexpression of MUC1 potentiates transformation (6) and attenuates stress-induced apoptosis through the Akt or p53 pathways (7,8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nADMCKD; ADMCKD1; Breast carcinoma-associated antigen DF3; CA 15-3; Cancer antigen 15-3; Carcinoma-associated mucin; CD227; DF3 antigen; EMA; Episialin; H23 antigen; H23AG; KL-6; Krebs von den Lungen-6; MAM6; MCD; MCKD; MCKD1; MUC-1; MUC-1\/SEC; MUC-1\/X; MUC1; MUC1-alpha; MUC1-beta; MUC1-CT; MUC1-NT; MUC1\/ZD; mucin 1, cell surface associated; mucin 1, transmembrane; Mucin-1; Mucin-1 subunit alpha; Mucin-1 subunit beta; Peanut-reactive urinary mucin; PEM; PEMT; Polymorphic epithelial mucin; PUM; tumor associated epithelial mucin; Tumor-associated epithelial membrane antigen; Tumor-associated mucin\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 230, 400\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG1","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799519514793,"sku":"4538T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-4538t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
