mucin-5B; MUC-5B; mucin-5 subtype B, tracheobronchial; high molecular weight salivary mucin MG1; sublingual gland mucin; cervical mucin (MUC5B, MUC5)

Function: - gel-forming mucin that is thought to contribute to the lubricating & viscoelastic properties of whole saliva & cervical mucus Structure: - highly glycosylated - S-, N- & O-gylcosylated - S- mannosylated in the Cys-rich subdomains probably on the first Trp of the WXXW motif - highly O-glycosylated in the Ser/Thr-rich tandem repeat region; the repeat region is about 59% O-glycosylated with a high abundance of neuAc(2)hex(1)hexNac1-ol - the Cys in the Cys-rich subdomain repeats are not involved in disulfide bonding - contains 1 CTCK (C-terminal cystine knot-like) domain - contains 1 TIL (trypsin inhibitory-like) domain - contains 3 VWFC domains - contains 4 VWFD domains Compartment: secreted Expression: - expressed on surface airway epithelia - expressed mainly in mucous cells of submucosal glands of airway tissues - highly expressed in the sublingual gland - also found in submaxillary glands, endocervix, gall bladder, & pancreas - regulated by all-trans-retinoic acid (cell-type specific)
