Q99102

功能描述

膜结合型粘蛋白,属于高度糖基化的蛋白质家族,构成粘液的主要成分,粘液是覆盖上皮表面的粘稠分泌物 (PubMed:10880978)。这些糖蛋白在上皮保护中发挥重要作用,并与上皮更新和分化有关 (PubMed:10880978)。通过对细胞-细胞及细胞-细胞外基质相互作用的抗粘附效应,以及作为ERBB2的膜内配体的能力,调节细胞行为。通过诱导ERBB2的特异性磷酸化,在上皮细胞的增殖和分化中发挥重要作用。在极化上皮细胞中,隔离ERBB2和其他ERBB受体,并阻止ERBB2充当辅助受体。与ERBB2的相互作用导致CDKN1B表达增强。MUC4-ERBB2-ERBB3-NRG1复合物的形成导致CDKN1B下调,从而抑制细胞凋亡并刺激增殖。其促进肿瘤生长的能力可能主要归因于抑制细胞凋亡,而非促进增殖。 {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12102554, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16049287, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16814944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16914178, ECO:0000303|PubMed:10880978}。

组织特异性

Expressed in the thymus, thyroid, lung, trachea, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, testis, prostate, ovary, uterus, placenta, and mammary and salivary glands. Expressed in carcinomas arising from some of these epithelia, such as lung cancers, squamous cell carcinomas of the upper aerodigestive tract, mammary carcinomas, biliary tract, colon, and cervix cancers. Minimally or not expressed in the normal pancreas or chronic pancreatitis, but is highly expressed in pancreatic tumors and pancreatic tumor cell lines.
