Protein binding partners of CASKIN1 in the human serome: UniProt-annotated complex subunits plus reported interactors. Each links to its own Seroatlas record.
Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads CASKIN1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CASKIN1 could matter depends on whether native CASKIN1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
CASKIN1 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 CASKIN1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
