Gene information for MUC3A (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4584
Official gene symbolMUC3A
Full namemucin 3A, cell surface associated
Aliases,MUC3,mucin,
Gene summaryThe mucin genes encode epithelial glycoproteins, some of which are secreted and some membrane bound. Each of the genes contains at least one large domain of tandemly repeated sequence that encodes the peptide sequence rich in serine and/or threonine residues, which carries most of the O-linked glycosylation (Gendler and Spicer, 1995 [PubMed 7778880]).[supplied by OMIM]
