Background of MUC2

Mucin 2, also known as MUC2, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MUC2 gene. This gene encodes a member of the mucin protein family. It is mapped to 11p15.5. Mucin 2 is particularly prominent in the gut where it is secreted from goblet cells in the epithelial lining into the lumen of the large intestine. There, mucin 2, along with small amounts of related-mucin proteins, polymerizes into a gel of which 80% by weight is oligosaccharide side-chains that are added as post-translational modifications to the mucin proteins. This gel provides an insoluble mucous barrier that serves to protect the intestinal epithelium. The primary function of the MUC2 gene product is to provide a protective barrier between the epithelial surfaces and the gut lumen. There is decreased expression of MUC2 in colonic cancer and defective polymerization of secreted mucin in ulcerative colitis.

Question

My team were happy with the WB result of your anti-MUC2 antibody. However we have seen positive staining in intestine secreted. note=in the intestine using this antibody. Is that expected? Could you tell me where is MUC2 supposed to be expressed?

Asked: 2019-08-12

Answer

From literature, intestine does express MUC2. Generally MUC2 expresses in secreted. note=in the intestine, secreted. Regarding which tissues have MUC2 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Cervix carcinoma, Pubmed ID: 18669648
Colon, Pubmed ID: 1400449, 1885763
Intestine, Pubmed ID: 8300571

Question

We are currently using anti-MUC2 antibody A01212 for mouse tissue, and we are content with the IF results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it possible that the antibody can work on dog tissues as well?

Asked: 2019-06-18

Answer

The anti-MUC2 antibody (A01212) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with dog tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question

Our lab used your anti-MUC2 antibody for IF on intestine in the past. I am using human, and I plan to use the antibody for IHC next. We want examining intestine as well as cervix carcinoma in our next experiment. Do you have any suggestion on which antibody would work the best for IHC?

Asked: 2016-11-08

Answer

I looked at the website and datasheets of our anti-MUC2 antibody and it seems that A01212 has been tested on human in both IF and IHC. Thus A01212 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for IHC in human even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for IHC detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.
