Rabbit Anti-MUC13/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
MUC13 is a mucin. These are secreted or transmembrane glycoproteins that are expressed mainly in the digestive tract and on epithelial surfaces. MUC13 is upregulated in gastric cancer. Mucins have also been implicated in inflammatory bowel diseases.
Function:
Epithelial and hemopoietic transmembrane mucin that may play a role in cell signaling.
Subunit:
Homodimer of beta subunits.
Subcellular Location:
Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Potential). Secreted. Note=Also exists as a soluble form.
Tissue Specificity:
Highly expressed in epithelial tissues, particularly those of the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, such as large intestine and trachea, followed by kidney, small intestine, appendix and stomach.
Post-translational modifications:
Cleaved into two subunits, alpha and beta, probably between the first EGF domain and the SEA domain. Beta subunit contains the cytoplasmic tail and alpha subunit the extracellular tail. The homo-oligomerization into dimers is dependent on intrachain disulfide bonds.
Highly N-glycosylated.
Similarity:
Contains 3 EGF-like domains.
Contains 1 SEA domain.
