MUC17 - mucin 17, cell surface associated Gene
Also Known as MUC3; MUC-3; MUC-17
Species: Homo sapiens
About MUC17
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 46 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 22.6), duodenum (RPKM 12.5) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane-bound Mucin that provides protection to gut epithelial cells. The encoded protein contains about 60 tandem repeats, with each repeat being around 60 aa. N-glycosylation enables the encoded protein to localize on the cell surface, while the C-terminus interacts with the scaffold protein PDZ domain containing 1 (PDZK1). Two transcript variants, one protein-coding and the Other non-protein coding, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
