[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/MUC5A_HUMAN MUC5A_HUMAN] Gel-forming glycoprotein of gastric and respiratory tract epithelia that protects the mucosa from infection and chemical damage by binding to inhaled microorganisms and particles that are subsequently removed by the mucociliary system (PubMed:14535999, PubMed:14718370). Interacts with H.pylori in the gastric epithelium, Barrett's esophagus as well as in gastric metaplasia of the duodenum (GMD) (PubMed:14535999).<ref>PMID:14535999</ref> <ref>PMID:14535999</ref> <ref>PMID:14718370</ref>  
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GALT2_HUMAN GALT2_HUMAN] Catalyzes the initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis, the transfer of an N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residue to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. Has a broad spectrum of substrates for peptides such as EA2, Muc5AC, Muc1a, Muc1b. Probably involved in O-linked glycosylation of the immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) hinge region.<ref>PMID:9295285</ref> <ref>PMID:12438318</ref>
