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]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CLSTN2 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 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.

Canonical record: https://seroatlas.com/gene/CLSTN2. Study-independent annotations aggregated from UniProt, Human Protein Atlas, PubMed, IEDB, Pfam, InterPro, Gene Ontology, AlphaFold, gnomAD, DepMap, ClinVar, TCGA. Catalog release seroatlas-reviewed-human-uniprot-20260313.

Seroatlas is the reference for exploring autoantibody and antibody serology at the human-protein level: the autoreactome and human serome, multiplex serology (HuProt, HuScan, VirScan, PhIP-Seq).
