OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene is one of several cytokine genes that are clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Cytokines are a family of secreted proteins that function in inflammatory and immunoregulatory processes. The protein encoded by this family member is similar to the chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 4 product, which inhibits HIV entry by binding to the cellular receptor CCR5. The copy number of this gene varies among individuals, where most individuals have one to five copies. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CCL4L1 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 CCL4L1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CCL4L1 could matter depends on whether native CCL4L1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CCL4L1 is annotated as secreted, so native CCL4L1 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 CCL4L1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
