The carboxyl-terminal sequence of rat intestinal mucin RMuc3 contains a putative transmembrane region and two EGF-like motifs. Abstract Text:

I A Khatri,G G Forstner,J F Forstner,

A 3' RACE technique was used to establish the nucleotide sequence encoding the C-terminal 379 amino acids of rat intestinal Muc3. Unlike the C-terminus of Muc2 and many secretory mucins, Muc3 contains two EGF motifs and a putative transmembrane domain. The mRNA for rat Muc3 is 7.5-8.0 kb.
