Mucin 4 (MUC4), a high-molecular-weight transmembrane glycoprotein, belongs to the mucin family characterized by heavily glycosylated tandem repeat domains. It plays critical roles in epithelial lubrication, cell signaling, and protection against pathogens. Structurally, MUC4 consists of a large extracellular α-subunit (carrying mucin-type O-glycans) non-covalently linked to a β-subunit containing epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains, a transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic tail. This unique structure enables MUC4 to participate in cellular adhesion, differentiation, and oncogenic signaling pathways.
Recombinant MUC4 proteins are engineered through molecular cloning techniques, typically expressed in mammalian (e.g., CHO, HEK293) or insect cell systems to ensure proper post-translational modifications. These recombinant versions allow researchers to study MUC4's functional domains without interference from its natural complexity. Key applications include investigating its interaction with receptor tyrosine kinases like ErbB2. which promotes cancer cell proliferation and metastasis, particularly in pancreatic, ovarian, and lung cancers where MUC4 is overexpressed.
Current research focuses on MUC4's dual role as a tumor biomarker and therapeutic target. Recombinant proteins facilitate the development of diagnostic antibodies and vaccines, while also serving as tools to decipher mechanisms underlying chemoresistance and immune evasion in mucin-rich tumors. Challenges remain in replicating its native glycosylation patterns, which significantly influence biological interactions. Ongoing optimization of expression systems aims to enhance the clinical relevance of recombinant MUC4 for both basic research and translational applications.
