OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a receptor for bradykinin. The 9 aa bradykinin peptide elicits many responses including vasodilation, edema, smooth muscle spasm and pain fiber stimulation. Bradykinin is released upon activation by pathophysiologic conditions such as trauma and inflammation, and binds to its kinin receptors, B1 and B2. The B2 receptor associates with G proteins that stimulate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2020]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against BDKRB2 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 BDKRB2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against BDKRB2 could matter depends on whether native BDKRB2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

BDKRB2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native BDKRB2 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 BDKRB2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
