OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a protein that contains a cytosolic N-terminus, multiple helical transmembrane domains, and an endoplasmic reticulum membrane retention signal, TKGH, in the C-terminus. The encoded protein may be important in development and homeostasis of the inner ear and retina. Mutations within this gene have been associated with Usher syndrome type IIIa. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Whether an antibody against CLRN1 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 CLRN1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CLRN1 could matter depends on whether native CLRN1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
CLRN1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native CLRN1 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label CLRN1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
