General description

Mucins or mucus glycoproteins are the main macromolecular components of mammalian mucus. It was also used in a study to evaluate the sputum smears concentrated by cyto-centrifugation for detection of acid-fast bacilli.

Application

Mucin from porcine stomach was used in studies on the binding site of the galactose-specific agglutinin PA-IL from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mucus forms the protective cover for all epithelial surfaces. The major structural component of mucus is gel-forming mucins. The mucus layer covering the intestinal epithelium has the MUC2 mucin as its central molecule. MUC2 is produced by goblet cells.

Preparation Note

Prepared according to the method of Glenister, et al., for use in complex growth media for dental plaque bacteria.

  5. What does the "Type" designation in Mucin from porcine stomach mean?

    The type designation does not have any particular biological significance.  It is used to emphasize differences in the listings of this product.

  6. Is Product M1778, Mucin from porcine stomach, a purified preparation of mucin?

    This product is a partially purified preparation of mucin based on the method of Glenister cited on the product's webpage.

  7. How can I solubilize Product M1778, Mucin from porcine stomach?

    Mucin is not readily soluble in aqueous solutions. Turbid "solutions" will form at about 5 mg/mL in 0.1 M acetate buffer, pH 5.0. To try to increase the solubility, one might try further dilution and sonication, but we have not tried this in our labs.

  8. What is the molecular weight of Product M1778, Mucin from porcine stomach?

    This product is partially purified from crude mucin, M2378.  Sigma has not determined the molecular weight of this product. Neither has the sugar and amino acid composition been determined.

  9. What are the differences between Mucin from porcine stomach Products M2378 and M1778?

    Product No. M2378 is a crude mucin preparation. Product No. M1778 is a partially purified powder prepared according to the method described in Glenister, D.A. and Salmon. K. Microbial Ecol. in Health & Disease 1, 31, (1988). The amount of bound sialic acids are also different. Please refer to the specification sheets on our website.
