OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the sulfotransferase 2 family. It is localized to the golgi membrane, and catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to the C4 hydroxyl of beta-1,4-linked N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) flanked by glucuronic acid residue in chondroitin. Chondroitin sulfate constitutes the predominant proteoglycan present in cartilage and is distributed on the surfaces of many cells and extracellular matrices. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Whether an antibody against CHST13 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 CHST13 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CHST13 could matter depends on whether native CHST13 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
CHST13 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 CHST13 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
