OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the acyl coenzyme family. The encoded protein hydrolyzes the CoA thioester of palmitoyl-CoA and other long-chain fatty acids. Decreased expression of this gene may be associated with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms with different subcellular locations have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads ACOT7 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ACOT7 could matter depends on whether native ACOT7 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ACOT7 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 ACOT7 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
