OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene interacts with the gamma-adaptin and alpha-adaptin subunits of complexes involved in clathrin-coated vesicle trafficking. Mutations in this gene are associated with type I punctate palmoplantar keratoderma. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against AAGAB can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads AAGAB as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against AAGAB could matter depends on whether native AAGAB is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

AAGAB is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label AAGAB as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
