OverviewNCBI Gene
The gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is associated with angiogenesis, with potential roles in endothelial tube formation and the migration of endothelial cells. It may also regulate smooth muscle cell migration via the RhoA pathway. The encoded protein can bind to heparin and may mediate heparin-sensitive cell adhesion. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

Whether an antibody against AAMP 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 AAMP as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against AAMP could matter depends on whether native AAMP is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
AAMP is annotated at the cell surface, where native AAMP is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label AAMP as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
