OverviewNCBI Gene

The membrane-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the MDR/TAP subfamily. Members of the MDR/TAP subfamily are involved in multidrug resistance. The protein encoded by this gene is the major canalicular bile salt export pump in man. Mutations in this gene cause a form of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestases which are a group of inherited disorders with severe cholestatic liver disease from early infancy.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against ABCB11 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 ABCB11 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ABCB11 could matter depends on whether native ABCB11 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ABCB11 is annotated at the cell surface, where native ABCB11 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 ABCB11 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
