The hydrophilic sugar chains help mucin dissolve in your body's watery fluids.

水糖链帮助溶解於你身体内的液体。

But a key component of mucus versatility is a set of proteins called mucins.

但是液的多功能主要 来自於一组称为" " 的质。

In mucin, long chains of sugars are attached to specific amino acids in the protein backbone.

在里，一长串的糖 会於特定的氨基酸位於质的骨干。

Saliva contains bicarbonate ions, which helps to neutralize acid in the mouth, and glycoproteins like mucin which thickens the saliva.

它包含碳酸氢根离子，可以中和口腔中的酸，还有糖，可以使唾液变得稠。

I'm-a lock all that in with a essence, and mine is a snail mucin essence.

我是——用精华锁住这一切，我的是蜗牛精华。

Normally mucin 1 goes to the surface of cells.

通常 1 会到达细胞表面。

Some of these mucins can interact with other mucin molecules to create a complex network that establishes a barrier against pathogens and other invaders.

一可以和 其他分子结合，构建一个复杂的保护屏障，来抵御病原体和其他侵入物。

But mucus contains mucins, antimicrobial peptides, antibodies, and even bacteria-hungry viruses called bacteriophages that all work together to prevent biofilms from forming.

但液中包含，抗菌肽，抗体，还有能吞噬细菌的病毒，叫做噬菌体。这成分协同作用防止生物膜的生成。

I use this to rehydrate my face because the next step you need a moist face for snail mucin.

我用它来给我的脸补充水分，因为下一步你需要一张湿润的脸来补充蜗牛。

We hypothesized that the mutation in the MUC1 geneis generating a mucin 1 proteinthat is not doing what it is supposed to do.

我们假设 MUC1 基因中的突变产生了一种 1 ，该没有发挥其应有的作用。

Remember, we hypothesized that the mutation in the MUC-1 geneis generating a mucin 1 proteinthat is not doing what it is supposed to do.

请记住，我们假设 MUC-1 基因中的突变产生了一种 1 ，该没有发挥其应有的作用。

So normally the MUC1 gene churns out a protein called mucin 1, which goes to the surface of cellsand forms a protective blanket around them.

因此，通常情况下，MUC1 基因会产生一种称为 1 的质，该质会到达细胞表面并在细胞周围形成一层保护毯。

This saliva contains a special ingredient called mucin, which is a protein that loves to soak up water, creating a kind of gel which forms a thin, protective coating all over your mouth parts.

这种唾液含有一种特殊的成分叫，它是一种喜欢吸收水的质，它产生一种凝胶，而这个凝胶会在你的口腔部分形成一层薄的保护性涂层。
