A large number of tandem repeats in the polymorphic epithelial mucin gene is associated with severe acne.

The Journal of dermatology - 1 Mar 1998

Ando I, Kukita A, Soma G, Hino H

Abstract excerpt

Polymorphic epithelial mucin (PEM) or MUC1 is a glycoprotein secreted from various epithelial gland tissues. In skin, PEM is detected in sweat glands and sebaceous glands by the DF3 monoclonal antibody. The gene of PEM includes an allele exhibiting length polymorphism due to a variable number of...
