About This Section
| UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: MUC16_HUMAN, Q8WXI7 (See
protein sequence)Recommended Name: Mucin-16 Size: 22152 amino acids; 2353428 Da
Subunit: Binds to MSLN. Binding to MSLN mediates heterotypic cell adhesion. This may contribute to the metastasis of ovarian cancer to the peritoneum by initiating cell attachment to the mesothelial epithelium via binding to MSLN
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Secreted, extracellular space. Note=May be liberated into the extracellular space following the phosphorylation of the intracellular C-terminus which induces the proteolytic cleavage and liberation of the extracellular domain
Miscellaneous: Antigen that is the basis for a widely used serum assay for the monitoring of patients with ovarian epithelial cancer. Due to lack of sensitivity for stage I disease and lack of specificity, it is of little value in the detection of early ovarian cancer. Due to its similarly elevated levels in some nonmalignant conditions, it is not specific enough to be used for population screening
Secondary accessions: Q6ZQW5 Q96RK2Post-translational modifications:
Heavily O-glycosylated; expresses both type 1 and type 2 core glycans1
Heavily N-glycosylated; expresses primarily high mannose and complex bisecting type N-linked glycans1
May be phosphorylated. Phosphorylation of the intracellular C-terminal domain may induce proteolytic cleavage and the liberation of the extracellular domain into the extracellular space1
May contain numerous disulfide bridges. Association of several molecules of the secreted form may occur through interchain disulfide bridges providing an extraordinarily large gel-like matrix in the extracellular space or in the lumen of secretory ducts1
