OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the DExD/H-box helicase family of proteins, a subset of the super family 2 helicases. Members of the DExD/H-box helicase family share a conserved functional core comprised of two RecA-like globular domains. These domains contain conserved motifs that mediate ATP binding, ATP hydrolysis, nucleic acid binding, and RNA unwinding. In addition to functions in RNA metabolism, members of this family are involved in anti-viral immunity and act as cytosolic sensors of viral nucleic acids. The protein encoded by this gene has been shown to inhibit hepatitis C virus replication in response to interferon stimulation in cell culture. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads DDX60L as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DDX60L could matter depends on whether native DDX60L is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

DDX60L 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 DDX60L as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
