Specificity
This monoclonal antibody recognizes full-length MUC1 in a glycosylation-independent manner and can bind to the fully glycosylated protein. The dominant epitope of this monoclonal antibody is APDTR in the VNTR region. It reacts with the core peptide of the MUC1 protein, which is a member of a family of mucin glycoproteins that are characterized by high carbohydrate content, O-linked oligosaccharides, high molecular weight (200kDa) and an amino acid composition rich in serine, threonine, proline and glycine. The core protein contains a domain of 20 amino-acid tandem repeats that functions as multiple epitopes for the monoclonal antibody. Incomplete glycosylation of some tumor-associated mucins may lead to variable unmasking of the multiple peptide epitopes leading to the observed differences in staining intensity between normal and malignant tissues. This monoclonal antibody reacts with both normal and malignant epithelia of various tissues including breast and colon.

Background: MUC-1
Overexpression of mucins, including MUC1, is a feature of many epithelial cancers (1,3,5,6). The presence of truncated glycan structures called tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens (TACAs) on MUC1 play a role in cancer progression and a loss of apical-basal polarity (5). Carbohydrate-binding partners called lectins are the primary binding partners of TACAs that give rise to the pro-tumor microenvironment and metastasis (5). Given this unique feature, TACAs are a potential target for cancer immunotherapies (5). There are a number of vaccines, drugs, and antibodies targeting MUC1 for treatment of a variety of cancers including breast, lung, and prostate (6). In addition to a role in cancer progression, MUC1, and specifically the CT portion, has been shown to have a positive, anti-inflammatory role in a variety of lung and airway infections (7).
