OverviewNCBI Gene

Enables protein-macromolecule adaptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of signal transduction; regulation of ossification; and regulation of protein glycosylation. Located in cytosol and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is active in endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Implicated in osteogenesis imperfecta. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CCDC134 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 CCDC134 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CCDC134 could matter depends on whether native CCDC134 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CCDC134 is annotated as secreted, so native CCDC134 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 CCDC134 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
