CA-125 also known as mucin 16 or MUC16 which is a protein in human encoded by the MUC16 gene. MUC16 is a member of themucin family glycoproteins. CA-125 has found application as a tumor marker or biomarker that may be elevated in the blood of some patients with specific types of cancers, or other conditions that are benign.
