OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the ankyrin repeat and SOCS box-containing (ASB) family of proteins. They contain ankyrin repeat sequence and a SOCS box domain. The SOCS box serves to couple suppressor of cytokine signalling (SOCS) proteins and their binding partners with the elongin B and C complex, possibly targeting them for degradation.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads ASB16 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ASB16 could matter depends on whether native ASB16 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ASB16 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 ASB16 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
