OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the CSRNP family of nuclear proteins that share conserved regions, including cysteine- and serine- rich regions, a basic domain, a transcriptional activation domain, and bind the sequence 'AGAGTG', thus have the hallmark of transcription factors. Studies in mice suggest that these genes may have redundant functions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against CSRNP2 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 CSRNP2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CSRNP2 could matter depends on whether native CSRNP2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CSRNP2 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 CSRNP2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
