OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene is overexpressed in pituitary tumors but is underexpressed in tongue squamous cell carcinomas, ulcerative colitis, and peri-implantitis. Polymorphisms that increase expression of this gene have been shown to increase vascular inflammation, and an association of this gene with myocardial infarction has been demonstrated. Finally, hypermethylation of this gene may find usefulness as a biomarker for gastric cancer. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Whether an antibody against BRINP3 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 BRINP3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against BRINP3 could matter depends on whether native BRINP3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
BRINP3 is annotated as secreted, so native BRINP3 circulates and is directly accessible to antibodies. Secreted and cell-surface proteins are the autoantibody targets most likely to act like drugs, blocking or depleting the native protein.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label BRINP3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
