Whether an antibody against CT62 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap
Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Cancer expressionTCGA
Across TCGA tumor cohorts, this protein is over-expressed in roughly 4% of surveyed tumor types (aggregate summary; per-cohort expression, alteration, and survival load in the interactive view).
Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads CT62 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CT62 could matter depends on whether native CT62 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
CT62 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 CT62 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
