The cationic C-terminus of rat Muc2 facilitates dimer formation post translationally and is subsequently removed by furin

Abstract: Earlier immunolocalization experiments showed that the extreme cationic C-terminus of the rat intestinal mucin Muc2 (RMC) was present at the base of intestinal goblet cells in the vicinity of ER and golgi compartments, but was not found with the rest of the mucin in apical storage granules. This prompted us to investigate the possibility that an early proteolytic cleavage reaction occurs post-translationally. A plasmid pRMC, encoding the C-terminal 534 amino acids of the mucin, was expressed in COS-7 cells and… Show more
