OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family, which has over 46,000 members. Members in this family are enzymes that metabolize many different compounds, such as steroid hormones, prostaglandins, retinoids, lipids and xenobiotics. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads DHRS12 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DHRS12 could matter depends on whether native DHRS12 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

DHRS12 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 DHRS12 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
