OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene was identified by genome-wide screen for genes involved in homologous recombination DNA double-strand break repair (HR-DSBR). The encoded protein was found in a complex with other proteins that have a role in HR-DSBR. Knockdown of this gene reduced homologous recombination, and mutations in this gene were found in patients with spastic paraplegia. It was concluded that this gene likely encodes a helicase (PMID:20613862). [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against AP5Z1 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 AP5Z1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against AP5Z1 could matter depends on whether native AP5Z1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

AP5Z1 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 AP5Z1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
