OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene is a member of the type IV diacylglycerol kinase subfamily. Diacylglycerol kinases regulate the intracellular concentration of diacylglycerol through its phosphorylation, producing phosphatidic acid. The specific role of the enzyme encoded by this gene is undetermined, however, it may play a crucial role in the production of phosphatidic acid in the retina or in recessive forms of retinal degeneration.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads DGKI as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DGKI could matter depends on whether native DGKI is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
DGKI is annotated at the cell surface, where native DGKI is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label DGKI as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
