MUC1 splice variants in human ocular surface tissues: possible differences between dry eye patients and normal controls.

Experimental eye research - 1 Sept 2006

Abstract excerpt

Mucins are highly glycosylated proteins that are vital to the maintenance of healthy epithelial surfaces including the ocular surface. Mucins act as lubricants, protectants, and mediators of signal transduction. The majority of the O-glycosylation sites on the transmembrane mucin MUC1 are found i...
