MUC20 (mucin 20) binds to both unphosphorylated and phosphorylated MET. MUC20 does not interfere with MET ligand-binding, dimerization and autophosphorylation, but association of MUC20 with activated MET specifically interferes with GRB2-1 recruitment to MET and the consequent RAS signaling activation. MUC20 oligomerization may facilitate binding to MET (Higuchi et al. 2004).
