Target Information
Bovine Mucin 5B, Oligomeric Mucus/gel-Forming (MUC5B) is a major gel-forming mucin found in the gastrointestinal tract of cattle. It plays a crucial role in forming the mucus barrier, which protects the epithelial cells from pathogens and environmental damage. MUC5B contributes to the lubricating and viscoelastic properties of mucus, aiding in the clearance of pathogens and particles. In bovine systems, MUC5B is essential for maintaining the integrity of the mucus layer, which is vital for gastrointestinal health. Abnormal expression of MUC5B has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting its importance in mucosal defense and homeostasis.
