OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a centrosomal protein which regulates centriole amplification by limiting centriole duplication to once per cell cycle. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CEP76 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 CEP76 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CEP76 could matter depends on whether native CEP76 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CEP76 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 CEP76 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
