OverviewNCBI Gene

This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that contains a DPY30 domain. This gene locus overlaps with a closely related gene on the opposite strand. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against DYDC2 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Genetic constraint and essentialitygnomAD · DepMap

Does the body need this protein intact? Low LOEUF or a strong DepMap dependency means loss or blockade of the protein is likely to be felt.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads DYDC2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against DYDC2 could matter depends on whether native DYDC2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

DYDC2 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 DYDC2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
