OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes an enzyme that belongs to the family of dihydrodiol dehydrogenases, which exist in multiple forms in mammalian tissues and are involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics and sugars. These enzymes catalyze the NADP1-linked oxidation of transdihydrodiols of aromatic hydrocarbons to corresponding catechols. This enzyme is a dimeric dihydrodiol dehydrogenase, and it differs from monomeric dihydrodiol dehydrogenases in its high substrate specificity for trans-dihydrodiols of aromatic hydrocarbons in the oxidative direction.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

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

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