OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein that contains a mono-ADP-ribosylation (ART) motif. It is a member of the ADP-ribosyltransferase gene family but enzymatic activity has not been demonstrated experimentally. Antigens of the Dombrock blood group system are located on the gene product, which is glycosylphosphatidylinosotol-anchored to the erythrocyte membrane. Allelic variants, some of which lead to adverse transfusion reactions, are known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against ART4 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 ART4 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ART4 could matter depends on whether native ART4 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ART4 is annotated at the cell surface, where native ART4 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 ART4 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
