Beschreibung

Allgemeine Beschreibung

MUC7 (mucin 7) is the lower molecular weight (200- 300kDa) mucin of the two types of oral cavity mucins, and is also called MG2. The other type of mucin, MG1, has high molecular weight (1000kDa). This gene is localized to human chromosome 4q13-q21, and is highly polymorphic in nature. This protein is composed of three domains namely, 4 and 1 potential N- glycosylation sites at its either ends, and a tandem repeat domain located centrally. MUC7 is composed of 68% carbohydrate and 30% protein. This protein has a molecular weight of 180kDa, and is highly expressed in sublingual and submandibular glands.

Immunogen

Mucin-7 precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Anwendung

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

MUC7 (mucin 7) has anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal properties. It is expressed in the airway secretions of asthmatics. Variants in this gene are linked to decreased susceptibility to asthma in African-American population. In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, this protein is highly sulfated. MUC7^*6/^*6 polymorphism is linked to higher oral hygiene, as well as higher chances of dental caries.

Leistungsmerkmale und Vorteile

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
