OverviewNCBI Gene
Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of synapse assembly and positive regulation of synaptic transmission. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi membrane; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and postsynaptic density. Predicted to be active in cell surface; glutamatergic synapse; and postsynaptic density membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads CLSTN2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CLSTN2 could matter depends on whether native CLSTN2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
CLSTN2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native CLSTN2 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 CLSTN2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
