OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene was identified by its similarity to the gene for human adenylyl cyclase-associated protein. The function of the protein encoded by this gene is unknown. However, the protein appears to be able to interact with adenylyl cyclase-associated protein and actin. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CAP2 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 CAP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CAP2 could matter depends on whether native CAP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CAP2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native CAP2 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 CAP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
