Polymorphism of Human Mucin Genes in Chest Disease . Possible Significance of MUC2

Most of the genes that encode epithelial mucins are highly polymorphic due to variations in the length of domains of tandemly repeated (TR) coding sequence, the part of the apomucin that is heavily glycosylated. We report here for the first time a difference in the distribution of MUC TR length alle...
