OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a zinc finger protein that functions as a regulator of chromosome segregation in mitosis. The encoded protein is required for correct alignment of chromosomes on the metaphase plate, and plays a role in maintaining the attachment of sister kinetochores to microtubules from opposite spindle poles. Mutations in this gene are associated with an autosomal dominant form of intellectual disability. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CHAMP1 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 CHAMP1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CHAMP1 could matter depends on whether native CHAMP1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CHAMP1 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 CHAMP1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
