OverviewNCBI Gene
Angiomotin is a protein that binds angiostatin, a circulating inhibitor of the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). Angiomotin mediates angiostatin inhibition of endothelial cell migration and tube formation in vitro. The protein encoded by this gene is related to angiomotin and is a member of the motin protein family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene.

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads AMOTL2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against AMOTL2 could matter depends on whether native AMOTL2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
AMOTL2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native AMOTL2 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 AMOTL2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
