lüll Mucin-interacting proteins: from function to therapeutics Senapati S; Das S; Batra SKTrends Biochem Sci 2010[Apr]; 35 (4): 236-45Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins that are involved in regulating diverse cellular activities both in normal and pathological conditions. Mucin activity and localization is mediated by several molecular mechanisms, including discrete interactions with other proteins. An understanding of the biochemistry behind the known interactions between mucins and other proteins, coupled with an appreciation of their pathophysiological significance, can lend insight into the development of novel therapeutic agents. Indeed, a recent study demonstrated that a cell permeable inhibitor, PMIP, that disrupts the MUC1-EGFR interaction, is effective in killing breast cancer cells in vitro and in tumor models.|Humans[MESH]|Mucins/*antagonists & inhibitors/*metabolism[MESH]|Neoplasms/*drug therapy/*metabolism[MESH]|Protein Binding/drug effects[MESH]|Protein Structure, Tertiary[MESH]|Transcription Factors/metabolism[MESH]|Wnt Proteins/metabolism[MESH] |
