OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a regulator of CDK5 (cyclin-dependent kinase 5) activity. The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the centrosome and Golgi complex, interacts with CDK5R1 and pericentrin (PCNT), plays a role in centriole engagement and microtubule nucleation, and has been linked to primary microcephaly and Alzheimer's disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads CDK5RAP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CDK5RAP2 could matter depends on whether native CDK5RAP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CDK5RAP2 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 CDK5RAP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
