OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an alpha-1,2-mannosyltransferase enzyme that functions in lipid-linked oligosaccharide assembly. Mutations in this gene result in congenital disorder of glycosylation type Il. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against ALG9 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 ALG9 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ALG9 could matter depends on whether native ALG9 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ALG9 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 ALG9 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
