Mucin apoprotein expression in COPD.

Chest - 1 May 2002

Leikauf George D, Borchers Michael T, Prows Daniel R, Simpson Leigh G

Abstract excerpt

Mucins, which are complex glycoproteins that provide the viscoelastic properties of mucus that are essential for the protection of the airways, are characterized by a variable-number tandem repeats (VNTR) region that may undergo alternate splicing during transcription. Such transcripts may yield...
