Recent evolution of the salivary mucin MUC7
Genomic structural variants constitute the majority of variable base pairs in primate genomes and affect gene function in multiple ways. While whole gene duplications and deletions are relatively well-studied, the biology of subexonic (i.e., within coding exon sequences), copy number variation remains elusive. The salivary MUC7 gene provides an opportunity for studying such variation, as it har...
متن کاملRespiratory tract mucin genes and mucin glycoproteins in health and disease.
This review focuses on the role and regulation of mucin glycoproteins (mucins) in airway health and disease. Mucins are highly glycosylated macromolecules (> or =50% carbohydrate, wt/wt). MUC protein backbones are characterized by numerous tandem repeats that contain proline and are high in serine and/or threonine residues, the sites of O-glycosylation. Secretory and membrane-tethered mucins co...
متن کاملStructures of the oligosaccharide chains in swine trachea mucin glycoproteins.
The structures of large O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides derived from swine trachea mucin glycoprotein were established. Reduced oligosaccharides released by treatment with alkaline borohydride were separated by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-6 and the neutral oligosaccharides were isolated by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Eight oligosaccharides (DIa to BII), ranging in length from 8 t...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of high molecular weight breast carcinoma associated mucin glycoproteins.
We have studied the biosynthesis of mucin glycoproteins recognized by monoclonal antibody W1 in MCF7 cells. Proteins of Mr 170,000, 185,000, 260,000, and 275,000 were immunoprecipitated from cells pulse-labeled with [3H]threonine and [3H]proline. Evidence suggesting that these proteins were precursors of high molecular weight mucin(s) included: 1) their kinetics of disappearance corresponded wi...
متن کاملIdentification of a major human high molecular weight salivary mucin (MG1) as tracheobronchial mucin MUC5B.
Human saliva contains high and low molecular weight mucin glycoproteins, that are distinct. Recently the gene encoding low molecular weight salivary mucin was cloned and designated MUC7, whereas the primary structure of high molecular weight salivary mucin is unclear. Furthermore, the expression patterns of high and low molecular weight salivary mucins in salivary glands have been debated. We h...
