OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a bromodomain-containing protein that localizes to the nucleus and can interact with DNA and histone tails. The encoded protein is a component of the MOZ/MORF acetyltransferase complex and can stimulate acetylation of histones H3 and H4, thereby potentially playing a role in gene activation. Variation in this gene is associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in some study populations. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads BRD1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against BRD1 could matter depends on whether native BRD1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

BRD1 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 BRD1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
