background

MUC16, also known as the CA125 antigen, is a mucin protein that may be found in type I transmembrane or secreted forms that are used monitor the progress of epithelial ovarian cancer therapy.Thought to provide a protective, lubricating barrier against particles and infectious agents at mucosal surfaces.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.

molecular weight

The protein has a predicted MW of 31.3 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-80 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

available size

100 µg, 500 µg

Protein names
Mucin-16 (MUC-16) (Ovarian cancer-related tumor marker CA125) (CA-125) (Ovarian carcinoma antigen CA125)
Gene names
MUC16,MUC16 CA125
Mass
1519175Da
Function
Thought to provide a protective, lubricating barrier against particles and infectious agents at mucosal surfaces.
Subellular 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.
Tissues
Expressed in corneal and conjunctival epithelia (at protein level). Overexpressed in ovarian carcinomas and ovarian low malignant potential (LMP) tumors as compared to the expression in normal ovarian tissue and ovarian adenomas.
Structure
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.
Post-translational modification
Heavily O-glycosylated; expresses both type 1 and type 2 core glycans.; Heavily N-glycosylated; expresses primarily high mannose and complex bisecting type N-linked glycans.; May be phosphorylated. Phosphorylation of the intracellular C-terminal domain may induce proteolytic cleavage and the liberation of the extracellular domain into the extracellular space.; 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 ducts.
Domain
TOPO_DOM 1
