OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene is upstream of, and in a head-to-head orientation with the gene for the mitochondrial ribosomal protein L34. The predicted protein contains alpha/beta hydrolase fold and secretory lipase domains. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads ABHD8 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ABHD8 could matter depends on whether native ABHD8 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ABHD8 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 ABHD8 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
