Reacts with the core peptide of the MUC1 protein, a member of a family of mucin glycoproteins that are characterized by high carbohydrate content, O-linked oligosaccharides, high molecular weight (>200kDa) and an amino acid composition rich in serine, threonin, proline and glycine. The core protein contains a domain of 20 amino-acid tandem repeats which function as multiple epitopes for the monoclonal antibody. Incomplete glycosylation of some tumor-associated mucins may lead to variable unmasking of the multiple peptide epitopes leading to the observed differences in staining intensity between normal and malignant tissues. This antibody has been shown to react with both normal and malignant epithelia of various tissues including breast and colon.
