OverviewNCBI Gene
Enables K63-linked polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity. Involved in regulation of DNA-templated transcription; rescue of stalled ribosome; and ribosome-associated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Located in nucleus. Part of DNA repair complex and RQC-trigger complex. Is active in cytosolic ribosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Whether an antibody against ASCC2 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 ASCC2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ASCC2 could matter depends on whether native ASCC2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ASCC2 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 ASCC2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
