OverviewNCBI Gene

DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of this family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. This gene encodes a DEAD box protein, which shows little similarity to any of the other known human DEAD box proteins, but shows a high similarity to mouse Ddx24 at the amino acid level.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against DDX24 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 DDX24 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DDX24 could matter depends on whether native DDX24 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

DDX24 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 DDX24 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
