Gene Symbol MUC20
Gene Full Name mucin 20, cell surface associated
Background This gene encodes a member of the mucin protein family. Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins secreted by many epithelial tissues to form an insoluble mucous barrier. The C-terminus of this family member associates with the multifunctional docking site of the MET proto-oncogene and suppresses activation of some downstream MET signaling cascades. The protein features a mucin tandem repeat domain that varies between two and six copies in most individuals. Multiple variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A related pseudogene, which is also located on chromosome 3, has been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
Function May regulate MET signaling cascade. Seems to decrease hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced transient MAPK activation. Blocks GRB2 recruitment to MET thus suppressing the GRB2-RAS pathway. Inhibits HGF-induced proliferation of MMP1 and MMP9 expression. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Secreted. Apical cell membrane. Basolateral cell membrane. Cell projection, microvillus membrane. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 72 kDa

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin-embedded Human placenta tissue. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in Citrate buffer (pH 6.0) for 20 min. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then stained with ARG43130 anti-MUC20 antibody at 1 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C.
