OverviewNCBI Gene
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the derlin family, and resides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Proteins that are unfolded or misfolded in the ER must be refolded or degraded to maintain the homeostasis of the ER. This protein appears to be involved in the degradation of misfolded glycoproteins in the ER. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads DERL3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DERL3 could matter depends on whether native DERL3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
DERL3 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 DERL3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
