Mucin 21 confers resistance to apoptosis in an O-glycosylation-dependent manner
Mucin 21 (MUC21) is a large glycoprotein that protects squamous epithelia. Glycan changes in mucins occur in cancer cells and are thought to contribute to malignant progression. We report glycoform-dependent antiapoptotic effects of MUC21. Various MUC21 glycoforms were expressed in HEK293 and CHO ce...
