OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene encodes a member of the DNAJ heat shock protein 40 family of co-chaperone proteins. The encoded protein contains an N-terminal DNAJ domain and a C-terminal substrate binding domain but lacks the cysteine-rich domain found in other DNAJ family members. In mice, a multi-protein complex containing this protein, thioredoxin 1, and histone deacetylase 4, serves as a master negative regulator of cardiac hypertrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

Whether an antibody against DNAJB5 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 DNAJB5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DNAJB5 could matter depends on whether native DNAJB5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
DNAJB5 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 DNAJB5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
