Mucin 1 Cell Surface Associated C-Terminal (MUC1-C)

Target
MUC1-C
Molecular classification
Type I transmembrane glycoprotein, Mucin
01

Overview

The C-terminal region of mucin 1 (MUC1-C) is a transmembrane subunit that plays a crucial role in oncogenesis by modulating intracellular signaling pathways. It is overexpressed in many carcinomas and contributes to epithelial-mesenchymal transition, cancer stem cell phenotype, and immune evasion. Its stable membrane association post-cleavage makes it an attractive target for antibody-based therapies.
