Target Details for MUC20

Target: MUC20 (Mucin 20, Cell Surface Associated (MUC20))

Alternative Name: MUC20

Background:

Synonyms: Mucin-20, MUC-20, MUC20, KIAA1359, UNQ2782/PRO7170

Tissue Specificity: Highly expressed in kidney, moderately in placenta, lung, prostate, liver, and digestive system. In the kidney, localized in the proximal tubules but not in the glomerulus or distal tubules. Detected in most of the male urogenital tract epithelia, with the exception of epididymis.

Background: Mucin-20 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC20 gene. 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.
