OverviewNCBI Gene

ADP-ribosylation factor 4D is a member of the ADP-ribosylation factor family of GTP-binding proteins. ARL4D is closely similar to ARL4A and ARL4C and each has a nuclear localization signal and an unusually high guanine nucleotide exchange rate. This protein may play a role in membrane-associated intracellular trafficking. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2021]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against ARL4D can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

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 ARL4D as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ARL4D could matter depends on whether native ARL4D is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ARL4D is annotated at the cell surface, where native ARL4D 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 ARL4D as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
