OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a protein with multiple tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) motifs as well as the highly conserved J domain found in DNAJ chaperone family members. It is a member of the tetratricopeptide repeat family of proteins and acts as an inhibitor of the interferon-induced, dsRNA-activated protein kinase (PKR). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against DNAJC3 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 DNAJC3 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DNAJC3 could matter depends on whether native DNAJC3 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

DNAJC3 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 DNAJC3 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
