OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the cyclin-dependent serine/threonine protein kinase family. Members of this family are well known for their essential roles as master switches in cell cycle control. The exact function of this protein has not yet been determined, but it may play a role in mRNA processing and may be involved in regulation of hematopoiesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CDK13 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 CDK13 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CDK13 could matter depends on whether native CDK13 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CDK13 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 CDK13 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
