OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene contains a CG1 DNA-binding domain, a transcription factor immunoglobulin domain, ankyrin repeats, and calmodulin-binding IQ motifs. The encoded protein is thought to be a transcription factor and may be a tumor suppressor. However, a translocation event is sometimes observed between this gene and the WWTR1 gene, with the resulting WWTR1-CAMTA1 oncoprotein leading to epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, a malignant vascular cancer.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CAMTA1 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 CAMTA1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CAMTA1 could matter depends on whether native CAMTA1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CAMTA1 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 CAMTA1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
