OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a receptor for anthrax toxin. The protein binds to collagen IV and laminin, suggesting that it may be involved in extracellular matrix adhesion. Mutations in this gene cause juvenile hyaline fibromatosis and infantile systemic hyalinosis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against ANTXR2 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 ANTXR2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ANTXR2 could matter depends on whether native ANTXR2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ANTXR2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native ANTXR2 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 ANTXR2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
